Only One Stepped Up When the Boy Cried. And It Was Peyton Manning

Everyone Was Laughing—Only One Stepped Up When the Boy Cried. And It Was Peyton Manning

The expensive tuxedo. The flashbulbs. The people around him raised their champagne glasses and laughed.
Peyton Manning was standing in the middle of the most prestigious gala of the year—a place full of politicians, billionaires, celebrities.
A night to honor the greatest.
Then… a cry came from the back of the room.
Someone had lost their mother.
A little boy, no more than seven, was trembling in the crowd, tears streaming down his face.
People turned. A few shook their heads. Security began to step forward…
But Peyton did the unexpected.
He left the stage. He left the speech he had been preparing for two weeks.
