Pittsburgh Steelers player goes to prom with student Anthony Molinaro
When his date left him hanging before prom, a Pennsylvania high student improvised and got an NFL star to go with him instead.
Pittsburgh Steelers player JuJu Smith-Schuster showed up to Chartiers Valley High Schools prom with student Anthony Molinaro, who invited the wide receiver over Twitter when his original date broke up with him.
Got a DM from [Molinaro] a while back about needing someone to go with, decided why not, had a litty night at his school! Smith-Schuster, 22, wrote on Twitter on Monday, along with a set of pictures showing the two in matching green suits.
Many on Twitter praised Smith-Schuster for taking time out to fill in as Molinaros date, calling him a role model and a leader in the community.
Matching suits and all. Thats just awesome. Guy is A1, wrote another.
Smith-Schuster was the Steelers top receiver last season, and lead the team with 111 catches and 1,426 yards.
But during the offseason, he has spent time making appearances in the Pittsburgh community, such as hosting a water balloon fight at a local park, volunteering at a nursing home and filming a video for newlyweds on their wedding day.
