Leave it to a Penn State grad to bring class to a classless situation.
Last Sunday, after the Dallas Cowboys hosted the New York Giants in Arlington, Texas, 11-year-old Kamil Bautista was outside AT&T Stadium hoping to score an autograph or two from some players, reports TMZ.
Along came Cowboys’ defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence.

Snubbed. Big time!
As if the walkaway and “get the right jersey, son” comment wasn’t bad enough, Lawrence had to expand on it later.
On Tuesday, Lawrence tweeted those critical of him to “suck it up.”
It’s crazy how you fans want to attack me for not signing for a kid. It’s more than one kid that come to the game with Cowboys jerseys and never get to meet any player. So if I’m honest with my own kids I will never treat your kid better than mine so suck it up. #SorryNotSorry https://t.co/FwI7SI8rYS

Well, Saquon Barkley decided to make it right with Kamil.
TMZ reports Barkley will fly Kamil and his family out to New York for the Nov. 10 game against the Jets.
The site says the star running back will give the family the VIP treatment at MetLife Stadium, from a meet-and-greet to autographs from Barkley (of course) along with other Giants players.
Not a bad result, kid.
