Brandon Jacobs Gives Back…
By Tom Brant
Everyone probably remembers hearing how a six year emptied out of his piggy bank of $3.36 and sent it to Brandon Jacobs in an attempt to keep him with the NY Giants. We all know how that worked out. However, Brandon went above and beyond and recently took the six year-old, his brother, and his own son to Jump On In Bounce in New Jersey. (That is Brandon wearing the number 45 with the 49ers)
"“It was just us in the whole place and we were just going room to room — just bouncing and flipping all over the place, hitting each other with balls, sweating, our shirts filthy,’’ Jacobs told the Sacramento Bee. “We were just dirty, stinky boys, you know?”Read more: http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/giantsblog/former_giant_jacobs_repays_year_CR5sYruGZ4KxXsVYtw3IXI#ixzz1ySSateaB"
Jacobs also gave the kid a 5$ bill for his piggy bank. This is a really awesome act of kindness by Brandon towards this boy and his family and although he is in SF this has probably earned back some respect from the Giants faithful.
