The 30-year-old receiver spotted the boy at BMO Field during pre-game activities.

So, the little guy who sent me the awesome game day vid, found him in the stands, & talked security into allowing me 2 bring him fieldside! pic.twitter.com/CB715mMuIJ

He got to stand with Iannuzzi on the sidelines – a moment to be remembered forever. Then the boy went back to the seats and watched B.C. score 18 straight points in the fourth quarter to beat Toronto 28-15.
