A Florida boy who was bullied and laughed at for his homemade T-shirt representing the University of Tennessee Volunteers at his elementary school’s college colors day has not only had his design made official by the university – but the demand for the product is so high that it crashed the school’s website.
It all started when Laura Snyder, the unnamed boy’s teacher at Altamonte Elementary School in Altamonte Springs, Florida, posted the story about the Tennessee-obsessed student.
“This particular child came to me and told me that he wanted to wear a University of Tennessee shirt, but he didn’t have one. We discussed that he could wear an orange shirt to show his spirit. He told me every day leading up to it that he had an orange shirt that he was going to wear”, Snyder said in her post.

Best story of the day. This stuff makes me cry.
He should get a "Honorary Full Scholarship" when he goes to college from UT
So, if you have a bad experience just cry and be the victim and someone will make it all better.
9:15 PM...have you ever been bullied or made fun of in front of your peers? This is a young person with feelings who wanted to fit in but couldn't so he improvised and was scorned. What about that offends you? Or, are you a bully too?
9:15 I Pray you have No Children with the mentality
you have displayed here.

how something so negative was turned into a Positive!
