IFWT_JJWatt_2

While you can easily find most other young athletes balling out and blowing money fast, Houston Texans’ J.J. Watt fulfilled his dreams by spoiling his mother for her birthday. The defensive end recently signed a six-year, $100 million extension with the Houston Texans. Watt admitted that he didn’t know what rich people typically buy, but he knew he would be able to get his mom, Connie, a new car—and a Twitter shoutout—for her birthday. Check out photos of the car and heartwarming tweet of J.J. by jumping on the link below…

Doing this was apparently something Watt has been wanting to do for some time. He explained to ESPN.com’s Tania Ganguli what gave him the idea for the present.

“Growing up, on TV I saw all the commercials with cars with red bows on them at Christmas time. I always thought to myself, ‘Who can do that? Who can just buy a whole car for somebody’s birthday or for Christmas and put a bow on it and drive it? Could you imagine if you could do that for somebody how awesome that would be?'”

“My whole life my parents have made sacrifices for me. they’ve done everything. They’ve made it so my brothers have had opportunities for success. To be able to give back to her and to surprise her like that, and to see my brother got me a nice video of her when she first saw it, there’s really no better feeling in the world than that to be able to take care of your family, take care of those closest to you. There’s no better way to spend my money than that.”

NOTHING LIKE A SON’S LOVE FOR HIS MOM !
