Resembling Ronnie ‘Sunshine’ Bass, Keller Fossil Ridge High School quarterback Max Akin was selected as his high school’s homecoming king. Also up for the honor was his classmate and friend, K.L. Norwood. Norwood has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy.

Presented with the crown during halftime of the game, Akin quickly passed it on to Norwood — whom was also up for the honor.

As Akin said, “I think it should’ve gone to the person who positively uplifts the school. Everybody was going wild for him. Everybody loves K.L. at this school.”
