Who Dey Nation is getting ready to cheer for the Bengals Sunday night. Twenty special fans will get a front-row seat inside Paycor Stadium Sunday at no cost thanks to a special donor. We met two of the recipients heading to the game."Well, I heard Lamar Jackson isn't playing. So I feel like we have a pretty good chance of winning," 12-year-old, Lucas Lauer said.Lucas lost his dad Brian in March 2020 to cancer, but his godfather Michael Seiter has been by his side ever since. "We went to the Baltimore game last year. I was able to get tickets for that," Seiter said.This week, a generous donor heard about their story and gave them two free tickets to Sunday's game against the Ravens."It's great because I never really got a chance with my own father, so making new memories and having new experiences," Lucas said. The generous donor giving back to 10 families is Kevin Cruz. He posted on social media looking for heartwarming stories to send deserving people to Sunday night's Bengals game."I believe when that kid is 20 years old, he's going to remember tomorrow night, and that's the biggest thing that's going to impact his life is knowing that his father is not here, but he had a man to step up," Cruz said.Cruz went through countless stories sent in by many people and chose 10 different ones."The biggest thing about these stories was it wasn't about the sports aspect. It was about what the Bengals were doing for them in spite of what they were going through," Cruz said.Cruz says the other people who he gave tickets to include a mother who has been watching her son battle in the ICU, a brother taking his sister Sunday on her birthday, a mother whose son is battling a serious chronic illness, an aunt who gained custody of her nieces and nephews, and a single mother who goes above and beyond for her children.For Lucas, Sunday night is going to be a moment he'll never forget. "I can tell he's looking down right now. Dad is just as happy for us," Lucas said.Cruz said the final two winners of the Bengals tickets are Chuck and Jentry Crawford.
