What he didn’t realize is that message got the attention of some pretty generous people and it landed him in Baker Mayfield’s box at FirstEnergy Stadium for a game day of a lifetime.

“We’d never had anyone who is younger than the runners. So my first reaction was, ‘This kid’s tiny!’” says Paul’s mom, Velleta Scott. “But then I saw him run. I was like, ‘Whoa, he’s amazing!’”

Rebel says he just loves to run and be able to help Paul. Paul says Rebel encourages him to run even faster.
