Cancer-stricken boy sings to Manning at golf tourney

There's always plenty of star power at the annual Peyton Manning Golf Classic in Knoxville, but this year a 4-year-old boy stole the show.

A.J. Cucksey, who has been diagnosed with inoperable tumors and benefits from the East Tennessee Children’s Hospital and Manning’s PeyBack Foundation, surprised the five-time NFL MVP with his rendition of "Rocky Top," a song closely associated with the University of Tennessee, Manning's alma mater.

If the song wasn't already the Denver Broncos quarterback's favorite, it's probably safe to assume it is now, as Manning sealed the heartfelt performance with a big hug for lead singer.
