Bradley Cooper surprises viral Eagles fan with Super Bowl tickets on 'Today' show [View all]

Actor Bradley Cooper, a lifelong Eagles fan and Jenkintown native, surprised eight-year-old Declan LeBaron with Super Bowl tickets on the Today show, where his story was shared after the young fan went viral last week.

LeBaron has been in and out of hospitals while battling systemic juvenile arthritis. Despite 17 different hospitalizations, LeBaron said had one dream: to attend an Eagles football game.

That dream recently came true thanks to social media personality Zachery Dereniowski, also known as MDMotivator. But the young Eagles fan went viral all on his own for an act of kindness that touched many. Dereniowski gave LeBaron the option to choose between a mystery Eagles mascot plushie or $1,000. After choosing the mystery toy, he was surprised with free tickets to the Eagles NFC championship game against the Washington Commanders. LeBaron also ended up getting the money, and that’s when he decided to share it all with other shoppers.

“It’s all free,” LeBaron says in the video as he drops the stack of cash onto the register before going around and handing out money to other “for kindness.”
