Some professional athletes are guilty of being out of touch with their fans but many of them do have hearts of gold.
Addison Russell, a short stop for the Chicago Cubs in the US’ Major League Baseball, is even classy enough to endear himself to his opponents’ fans.
Earlier this week, he chased a foul ball but only managed to spectacularly dive into a fan, who spilled his plate of nachos.
However, a few innings later, Russell ran out of the Cubs’ dugout with a new plate of nachos and delivered it to the fan.
He even hung around for a selfie before going to field again.
