THRAPSTON, England – As Browns alumni Gary Barnidge ran down an aisle surrounded by students in the gymnasium at Thrapston Primary School, students waived rally towels over their heads and screamed in cheers.
For Barnidge, the students' energy and excitement reminded him of the atmosphere at Browns.
"Today is special because I get to give back to the kids," Barnidge said. "It's all teaching them to stay in the game, about attendance and how important it is to stay in school and how school is such an important part in kids' lives. And just being able to give back and enjoy time with them and see the smile on their faces."
