Welles Crowther was a former Boston College lacrosse player who had a trademark red bandanna.
He was also working in New York on Sept. 11, 2001 when terrorists struck the World Trade Center.
This is the story of how he led people to safety on that fateful day 25 years ago.

My 4 year old son while watching women’s freestyle skiing “Don’t fall down pretty girl” every time another athlete begins. We say this to baby sister, those little ears don’t miss a thing #WinterOlympics

The amount of people who think civilians should always remain calm around law enforcement but give “trained” law enforcement passes to be scared or excitable is truly astounding

Surely a white male being killed for exercising his 1st amendment rights while also using his 2nd amendment rights to carry a firearm being killed will make a difference to those who are obsessed with preserving the white race and the constitution.
God Bless Texas and tamales
Texans have an intentional food safety blind spot when it comes to tamales.
We would never buy a hamburger out of a trunk of a car.
No back of a bike chicken.
Or soup from a backpack.
Or anything else cooked by a stranger with no explanation.
But tamales?
All suspicion disappears.
A cooler shows up. No signage. No credentials. No origin story.
We don’t ask questions. We ask how many dozen.
This isn’t an accident. It’s a choice.
Everyone has a tamale person.
A lady from church.
A guy in a parking lot.
A coworker’s aunt selling out of her trunk.
Even with H-E-B and legit online ordering, we still trust the cooler more than the store. We'd get into a fistfight over how good the tamale hookup we have is.
It’s December, peak tamale season.
I had a guy show up at my house several weeks ago while I was home sick. I checked my Ring camera and all I saw was a short Mexican guy with a slide-top Igloo cooler.
I knew exactly what he was there for.
I said hello on the intercom. Told him I was sick. He asked if I wanted any tamales.
I was devastated, I had to say no. I didn't want to give him the flu. But I was adamant he come back next time he was selling.
Will I ever see him again? Maybe. Maybe not.
Do I know where he gets them? Absolutely not.
Will I buy some if he ever comes back? You betcha.
