A photo showing two N.C. State football players befriending a handicapped student at lunch has appeared on dozens of websites, garnering national attention.
It is resonating with people because it appears as an unexpected friendship and act of kindness towards a student who was eating alone.
But that's not exactly what happened.
It turns out that graduate student tight end Asa Watson has been friends with Will Spence, the student in a wheelchair, for quite some time. In reality, it is just a normal lunch for Watson and Spence, and freshman center Cole Blankenship.
In fact, the three said they were unaware anyone took their photo while they were eating, and they're still unsure of who it was.
