OTL’s ‘Man In The Red Bandanna,’ The Story Of Boston College Laxer and 9/11 Hero Welles Crowther

12 years later, everyone needs to know the story of Welles Crowther, a selfless bro and true hero in every sense and meaning of the word. To let it really sink in, pause at the 2:33 mark and read his quote and ambition. On Saturday, UCF's football team will honor Welles' heroism by wearing a red bandana against Boston College. Thank you for the lives you saved, Welles. We'll never forget you.
