CowBuzz: Spelling Bee Co-Champion Earns Star Treatment to Meet Dez

Immediately following his final word at the Scripps’ National Spelling Bee, Nihar Jenga celebrated his co-championship by throwing up the X. Texas Native, Jenga is a proud Dez Bryant fan and had no idea that his reaction would gain attention from No. 88 himself.

#NiharJanga you just made my whole day buddy.. Congrats on winning the #spellingbee champ.. Some how some way I have to get you to a game #x

— Dez Bryant (@DezBryant) May 27, 2016

Prior to the Spelling Bee, Janga’s father had promised him that if he won he would gladly take him to a game at AT&T Stadium.
