Five years ago, William Gholston was a high school senior whose car ran out of fuel on the freeway. That's a big enough problem on its own, but when you got no money on you it gets compounded exponentially (it would also explain why the car had no gas in it). That was Gholston's reality, and with no other real options the defensive end hiked to the nearest gas station, which just so happened to be one of like five in the whole country that took pity on a stranded motorist, and gave him a full tank of gas on the house.

Fast forward to today (actually, yesterday), Gholston is a two-year pro for the Tampa Bay Bucs, and he returned to the gas station to finally pay his tab to the employee who comp'd him. The end result of the reunion is the above video, which is half feel good and half I think that guy just called me a bitch.
