PHOENIX — Arizona Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson, wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald and several other players made a lot of kids smile Monday night at a Phoenix Walmart.
They surprised 50 underprivileged kids — from an organization called A New Leaf — with a shopping spree.
“I’m super excited,” said 13-year-old Edward Alva. “I want to buy my mom a perfume or a ring.”
Shop with a Jock is an annual holiday event that provides children with a night filled with fun, food, games and $100 to spend however the kids desire.
