Arian Foster surprises college student with free textbooks
One fan's joking question on social media paid off in a big way.
Houston Texans fan Ernesto Guerrero hit up running back Arian Foster on Twitter asking if he might be interested in paying for the college student's textbooks.
Surprisingly, Foster not only responded, he agreed to buy the books.
@ArianFoster Crystal City TX, but I'm going to school at Texas A&M International in Laredo Tx

Guerrero's good fortune inspired another fan to reach out to Foster for help, but the Pro Bowler said his influence only goes so far.

As Guerrero's experience shows, it never hurts to ask.
