High school senior Preston Cross left the Mandeville Hill School prom this weekend early, before the king and queen were named. He has spina bifida and it was already a long night. But Cross left before finding out he was selected prom king.

quote:

When Preston wheeled into the gym, he had no idea what was in store. Prom queen Samantha Jenks was waiting with his sash. Skipper Buddies co-President Ali Lesh was waiting with his crown. The student body was gathered, with teachers, administrators, members of Preston's family and friends. His brothers, his mom and dad were there.

Glad to see these kids did something they will look back on and be proud of themselves...instead of being self absorbed morons.

Preston's father, Christopher Cross, threw open the gymnasium doors as Preston rolled in, one of his favorite songs, "This is How We Roll" by Florida Georgia Line playing in the background.

Being proud of a nice gesture makes one a self absorbed moron?
