Two brothers from Australia found themselves making a bittersweet memory before the University of Cincinnati vs. the University of Arkansas season opener game on Saturday. Mason Fletcher, sophomore punter for the Bearcats has a younger brother, Max Fletcher, who just so happens to be the freshman punter for the Razorbacks. The two brothers from Melbourne were reunited on Saturday's game and Mason got to reunite with his mom. He hadn't seen her in two years. The Cincinnati Bearcats Football Twitter account posted the video of the reunion. UC captioned the video "We're not crying, you’re crying! (Okay… we're crying too.) Mason Fletcher's family flew in from Australia to watch him and his brother play against each other tomorrow at Arkansas." Watch video below to see the reunion.Fletcher had posted a picture of him and his brother in uniform to his Twitter prior to the season opener game and said "Fair to say mum and dad are tailgate ready," with a few laughing emojis. Max, who hadn't seen his parents in eight months, also took to Twitter to post a family picture. "Good to see mum and dad for the first time in 8 months, excited for Saturday #woopig," the freshman punter said. Although the game didn't rule in Cincinnati's favor when Arkansas defeated them 31-24, it was still a win for the Fletcher brothers.
