Earlier this month, 6-year-old Golden State Warriors fan Isaiah Simpson was devastated when he found out that the wouldn't be able to watch his favorite player, Stephen Curry, at Philips Arena in Atlanta due to an error with the $600 tickets his mother paid for.
"Isaiah loves the Golden State Warriors," his mother, Alex McDonald, originally told CBS46 in Atlanta. "The lady calls and she says 'I do see that there was an error' and my kids are crying they want to go inside they want to get something to eat."
"I start crying because I really wanted to see the game," Isaiah said of the moment he found out he couldn't watch his favorite team.
That was not the end of the story. The Warriors made sure Isaiah got to see his favorite team play in person.
On Sunday, the 6-year-old lived out his dream by flying to Oakland to meet Curry and watch the Warriors play in Oracle Arena.

Not only did the young Warriors fan finally get to watch his favorite team, but he also saw them come away with a 106-94 win over the Memphis Grizzlies.
The Warriors won and Curry hit five 3-pointers. What a night to remember.
