Peter Piper Pizza restaurant in Tuscon, Arizona was the site of much sadness on Sunday afternoon.
That’s where 6-year-old Teddy invited 32 of his classmates to celebrate his birthday. That’s where exactly 0 of those 32 showed up.

It’s heartbreaking isn’t it? But worry not, friends. Sunday’s sadness turned into Monday’s gladness thanks to your Phoenix Suns.
How about we celebrate with thousands at our place! Tickets to Wednesday’s #SunsVSLakers game are all yours Teddy! Talk soon! https://t.co/YL3zjDX9JW

Yes, indeed. Teddy will be in house when the Suns host LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday. But the goodwill doesn’t stop there.
Phoenix Rising FC of the United Soccer League has invited Teddy to its playoff game on Friday against the Swope Park Rangers.
Teddy can get The Mala from @VeneziasPizza and join 7,000 of his closest friends this Friday. Come on out Teddy! #UpRising https://t.co/mNpcwfNOcy

A representative for the team told abc15 Arizona that fans have reached out in an effort to purchase a customized jersey for Teddy.
Birthdays happen every year. Playoff games in the state of Arizona? That is a much rarer occurrence. You’ll understand when you’re older.
