Autistic basketball player creates mayhem at game

Advertisements [?]

You MUST watch this video!!!!

CBS ran an incredibly powerful story tonight that brings you to your feet and just keeps on giving each and every minute into it. Jason McElwain, an autistic high school basketball team member in Rochester NY, served as the coach's assistant and spirit leader for several years. On the final game of the season the coach let him finally put on a jersey with the rest of the team. Watch what happens then...
CBS Evening News, Feb 23, 2006, 2:44, 320x240, 7megs.

This is one of those rare stories that makes you drop everything and share it with everybody.
