Minnesota Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater surprised 6-year-old fan Obadiah Gamble on Wednesday with a special birthday visit.

While this could be considered a selfless move by the young quarterback, it was really the least Bridgewater could do after Gamble made him a stellar music video entitled "Hey Teddy" inviting the Viking to his birthday.

"I was making up songs in the bathroom, and I thought, 'Hey - maybe I could invite Teddy to my birthday party,'" Gamble told the Viking's team website. "It was a dream come true.

"I was like, 'Oh man, that's Teddy.' Now I have to put on my best behavior for a football player."

Bridgewater couldn't make it to Gamble's real party on Sunday, so he showed up at the young fan's house on Wednesday to deliver a birthday cake and spend some time with one of his biggest fans.
