From SB Nation:
Many give Boston Red Sox fans plenty of grief, some of it warranted, some of it not. Red Sox Nation has become, for better or worse, a whipping boy. But the following video of the crowd at Fenway Park helping an autistic man sing the National Anthem, is simply an incredible display. As he begins to trip-up during the middle of the song, the crowd encourages him, then sings along.
The moment took place during Disability Awareness Day at Fenway. The video below speaks for itself:
freaking AWESOME!
Did you see the turtle at the golf tourney? 45-sec clip:

This Red Sox fan ran up and down the hills of San Francisco proudly wearing my cap during the last World Series. Mostly I was gently ribbed, or down right encouraged for my loyalty.
God bless America! Now I have to explain why I’m crying at work.
Makes you feel proud to be an American and proud to be a Red Sox fan! Great job Jim.
I still hate Boston. Come one, Jim, you’re a Lakers fan too. You must hate all things Boston.
