Random act of kindness leads to lasting friendship between Hawkeyes linebacker, Omaha family

A chance encounter has turned into a lasting friendship between an Iowa football player and a Nebraska family.Hawkeyes linebacker Zach Twedt stopped on Interstate 35 last July to help Tina Gunn, of Omaha, who got a flat tire while traveling from Minnesota back to Omaha. It happened just north of Story City, where Twedt grew up, and the random act of kindness went viral. Twedt recently invited Gunn and her kids to spend a day at his family's Story City farm, complete with tractor rides. Gunn says the one-of-a-kind experience must be an Iowa thing.
