A dad who took his son to his first ever rugby match said they were "blown away" by a fan's random act of kindness.
Jonah Fisher took his 10-year-old son Max to see the Wales v Fiji game at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Sunday, November 14.
Jonah, a BBC correspondent who had moved to Cardiff from Kyiv in Ukraine just a few days before the game, took to Twitter to praise the Wales fan for being "so spontaneously generous".
He explained how he and Max had been standing in front of a group of rowdy Wales fans while looking forward to the game, but they were then forced to move to a quieter area after some beer dropped on them.
As they were leaving, Jonah said one of the men ran after them and offered Max £20 to buy himself something nice, like a match scarf, as he apologised for what happened, WalesOnline reports.
With it being a time of intense change for Max as he started a new school and his mum and sister still in Ukraine, Jonah said he was "moved to tears" by the act as it made such a "special day" for his son.
On Twitter, Jonah posted in a thread: "So I've just moved to Cardiff... and today I took my 10 year old son to the rugby... Wales v Fiji. He's been really excited about coming here... we've kicked and thrown a rugby ball around Kyiv... but this was his first ever match. It was a big deal.
"We arrived at the stadium an hour and a half before the game kicked off ... he was that keen that we not miss a moment. The anthems were great... the fireworks amazing... the match kicked off...
"Fiji fought well...Sitting behind us were some loud Welsh twentysomethings... who clambered into their seats just before kick-off... their arms laden with beers... for my boy who's lived a bit of a sheltered foreign life it was a bit of an eye-opener.
"And the language a bit lively but I reassured him it was all part of the fun and we enjoyed the first half... despite a light sprinkling of beer...As the second half kicked off we got covered with some more beer as they returned to their seats... and so we decided to move a row further down to some spare seats where we enjoyed the rest of the game."
He said as they left slightly early to catch their train home, one of the men ran towards them as they were going down the stairs of the stadium.
Jonah continued: "To my amazement he took out a twenty pound note and pressed it into my son's hand. I protested and protested that I understood there was no malice in the beer... and to keep the money... "buy yourself a scarf on the way out" he told my son.
"I heard this is your first game - I want you to enjoy it"... So we took the 20 pounds... and my son is now deciding what to spend his money on... Thank you to that Welsh rugby fan - for making my son's first match so special."
Speaking to WalesOnline, Jonah said he was moved by the kindness of the stranger, and wanted to share the warmth he and his son felt.
He said: "I was moved to tears a little bit that it was just such a nice thing to have happened.
"We've lived around the world and the world can be quite a tough place at times, and at a vulnerable time with our lives changing, a new school and no mum here and just for someone to have that moment of kindness, it hits you.
"I decided to tweet about it because the world isn't full of news about people doing nice things so I thought I'd put it out there s people can see some good in the world.
"Max was blown away by it, he couldn't quite believe it. We'd been to football matches in Ukraine and nothing like that has ever happened before with people being spontaneously kind and generous."
