Sherry Myers went into Target on Tuesday night to buy a gift for a young boy in need. Little did she know her act of kindness would multiply thanks to Kentucky Basketball player Jordan Burks.
Myers is a human resources manager who also does extensive community service in the Lexington and Georgetown communities. Through a mentoring program for young mothers, she met Chandler Graves, a 10-year-old boy who has had a rough year. She went inside to get him a gift and a few things for herself. When she got to the register, she noticed a very tall guy ahead of her who lingered at the credit card machine when she put her items on the belt.
“I’m in line thinking, let me hurry up and get out of here,” Myers told KSR. “And this gentleman in front of me, I noticed after he paid for his stuff, he kind of stood there by the kiosk where you put your debit card in. He never moved but I put my stuff on up there and she’s ringing it up. And he told the cashier, ‘I’m gonna get hers.'”

Small world. This is my mom’s best friend. She is in a group txt with some of my family members. She posted this experience in there, and she had no idea his name, till I looked up the roster for her. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer , generous or more caring person in the world.
She was interviewed Friday by KSR radio, and 36 News. The news will be interviewing Jordan next week after he gets back from Atlanta playing in the UNC game yesterday.

Awesome.
The rant doesn't like feel good stories, or simply doesn't like Kentucky.

The fact that people would downvote this shows that there are some truly shitty, miserable people in this world.

I'm thinking they dislike anything Kentucky, but both observations of the downvoters can be true.
