Nihar Janga famously threw up the “X” when clinching the co-title at this year’s Scripps National Spelling Bee – homage to his favorite player, Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant.
After seeing this, Bryant then made it his mission to meet the young scholar. On May 27, Bryant tweeted:
#NiharJanga you just made my whole day buddy.. Congrats on winning the #spelling bee champ.. Some how some way I have to get you to a game #x
Yesterday, Janga visited Valley Ranch where he got to meet his favorite player.
