One family from Sacramento got a nice surprise, thanks to 49ers tight end George Kittle.
Kittle gave the family of fallen Army Sgt. Martin “Mick” LaMar two tickets to the Super Bowl in Miami, against the Kansas City Chiefs.
In a statement, Kittle said, “As I hit the field to play in the Super Bowl, I find comfort in the fact that 49ers fans Josie (Lamar's widow) and Nicolas (Lamar's only son) will be cheering our team on.”
Lamar died in 2011 after he was shot by an Iraqi soldier that he was training.
