Arsenal beat Sunderland 3-1 in FA Cup action today and after the match, Theo Walcott pulled a young fan out of the crowd to bring him on the pitch for a quick celebration. The two did the jumping back bump thing—the kid kind of ate it on the way down, but give him a break he probably didn't even know where hewas at that point—and then they shook hands.
The fan handled the handshaking much better than the back bump, so maybe he was feeling a little more confident, and before they could bring it in for the full handshake-bro-hug, he asked for Walcott's jersey. Walcott took it off and handed it to him and walked off the pitch to chants of "Theo." Said noted sports-hater and VICE Sports staff writer Aaron Gordon, "It was a nice little moment." Agreed.[FS1]In the absence of @mertesacker, @theowalcott gets a fan on the pitch for the bump!And then gives him his shirt! pic.twitter.com/xZb7g53jef
