Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant has made headlines recently for his dramatic outbursts on the field and on the sidelines, but what he did on Thursday night deserves just as much attention. According to several Twitter users, Bryant strolled into Walmart to buy himself a PlayStation 4 and ended up buying the console for a handful of people.
PS4’s highly-anticipated launch sent people to stores in eye-popping numbers on Thursday. Those who were fortunate enough to be standing in line with Bryant while he was waiting to buy his didn’t have to pay a dime. Here’s the story as one lucky recipient told it.

The Cowboys star even posed for a photo with one of the fans he had just purchased the console for.

Bravo, Dez. The gesture probably cost him about $2,000, which will seem like nothing when he signs his next massive contract. Still, we don’t see stuff like this often enough. What was a small gesture for Bryant probably just made Christmas 2013 the best of someone’s life.
