Saquon Barkley had everyone smiling during the Philadelphia Eagles' Super Bowl parade.
While walking along the street, interacting with and high-fiving all the Eagles fans that came out to celebrate the big win, Barkley spotted someone very important.
Barkley saw one of the Eagles' ball boys and went to give him a hug. Afterwards, he pulled him over the railing so he could celebrate the win with the rest of the team.
And that wasn't even all of it.
While the entire team gathered on the stage, Barkley brought up Ryan Quigley for his speech.
Quigley is an Eagles fan who survived the New Orleans terror attacks on New Year's Day. He returned to the city where he sustain near-fatal injuries to watch the Eagles win a Super Bowl and then went to Philadelphia where he got to be a part of the parade.
Barkley made sure that Quigley got to share this moment with the team.
Plus, all throughout the day, Barkley not only celebrated with his teammates, but he also made sure that all the fans had a memorable time as well.
Specifically, Barkley saw three-year old Lucy Bannon with a sign that said, "Today is my 3rd Birthday! Go Birds!" Barkley ran over, picked up Bannon, held up the sign, and took a photo with her, making this birthday one that her family will never forget.
A class act in every way.
