Thank God she was ready with a dress on and all.

We’re an overly cynical bunch here and perhaps the Burger King king joining Floyd Mayweather’s entourage has ruined us forever but we’re finding it hard to accept this as the sweet, #FairPlay story the Minnesota Vikings want it to be.

Quarterback, Teddy Bridgewater, who burst onto the scene in Minneapolis in 2014, surprised an allegedly unsuspecting Louisville girl when he showed up at her house and escorted her to prom.

The 22-year-old American Footballer would’ve been glad that Ashley Davis knew who he was and that she was sitting around with her make-up and hair and clothes and all sorted just waiting on a prince charming to ring the door bell.

And, luckily enough, TV cameras were on the scene to catch the good deed.

“It was a good thing to do,” Bridgewater said as his agent sparked up a cigar on a job well done. “It really touched me when I first met her, how she kind of teared up and everything. It just shows that sort of I made an impact here on the playing field on and off the playing field. Ashley, she is just a great girl and I am going to make sure that she has a good time.”

Wonder where her actual date disappeared to.
