While there was rain in the forecast, Saturday's surprise birthday party for an 11-year-old local boy carried on. Bringing smiles to him and his family after being diagnosed with an incurable degenerative neurological disease.
Gage and his family arrived in the rain with a police escort, in sports cars. Something Gage loves.
Hes a little overwhelmed, I can tell, but hes loving it, says Gage's sister Roxanne.
The community came together, with special appearances from Tampa Bay Rays' mascot, Raymond, to deliver Gage tickets to an upcoming game.
Gage also got to sit in a St. Petersburg fire truck, a SWAT vehicle, and several other sports cars.
And rain did interrupt the car show here and there, but overall, the family had fun, delivering Gage a birthday party he won't forget for a while.
