Dallas Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant surprised Wal-Mart shoppers during the midnight release of the PlayStation 4 on Friday by purchasing a nex-gen console for everyone who was waiting in line.
Bryant visited a North Texas Wal-Mart store and paid for the $399.99 consoles for the shoppers, bringing the Christmas spirit a little early for some. Fans took to Twitter to thank and praise Bryant for his gesture.
The news of Bryant's actions comes after he was caught on national television shouting at his teammates. To many viewers, it looked as if he was allegedly being "disrespectful" to his fellow players, but Bryant later explained it was his competitive nature coming through.
