Bob Kraft sends 10-year cancer survivor to fill in for Pats at Super Bowl – Boston News, Weather, Sports

Patriots owner Bob Kraft and the Patriots Organization recently took the time to show how much supporting a young Maine boy means to the team by gifting him a ticket to the big game.

Kellan Tilton, a 10-year-old Patriots fan from Maine, has watched his brothers win soccer titles and is a huge supporter of the Pats. He recently attended a team-hosted wheelchair soccer clinic and caught the attention of the Patriots’ owner.

As a cancer survivor, Kellan works to raise awareness of the disease, and he received a special call at school from none other than Bob Kraft himself, who called Kellan an “inspiration for our team.”

“We’re really proud to have you as a fan and we want to do something for you,” he said, before announcing he’s sending him and a friend to Arizona for the Super Bowl.

Kellan called it a “total shock.”
