Elderly Fan Goes Through All The Emotions Watching His College Basketball Team In Heartwarming Video

An incredible video shows what truly unfiltered and unchained passion in sports looks like.

It's never a bad time to watch a heartwarming video, and the one shared Sunday morning on X by Fox News is definitely one of the best we've seen in a long time.

The video from Lexy Gavin-Mather shows her dad - a huge Memphis fan - experiencing a wide-range of emotions watching the Tigers play.

He was up and out of his chair at times, giving a couple fist pumps, breaking down the calls and in what was an epic moment, he even discussed strategy moving forward.

Check out the best video you'll see all day, and hit me with your reactions at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

Elderly Memphis fan warms the soul of the internet.

Damn, is it a bit dusty in here or is it just me? That video definitely hit a special kind of way, and I say that as a huge positive.

There's so much negativity online these days. It's a never-ending stream of garbage, negativity and pessimism. It's important to remember there's a lot of good still out in the world.

Seeing an elderly college basketball fan ride a roller coaster of emotions during a game is the definition of soul-warming content. It goes to show that no matter how old you get, you're always a child at heart when your team is playing.

I'm not different, my dad isn't any different and the fact you're on OutKick reading this article tells me you're not any different, either. Guys and sports are one of the few great things we have left in this society.

It's the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. One moment, you're crushed. The next, your team can walk off the court winners. Major props to this guy for soaking it all up and his daughter for giving the internet something to smile about. You simply love to see it. Let me know what you think at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
