South Carolina Football players ran through a Richland Library loves the Gamecocks sign to kick off a fun event of games, story time, and autographs.
The event takes place at The Drew Wellness Center and is put on by Richland Library every year. Three duos of Gamecocks read books to the kids in attendance. The players even got into a game of Simon Says too. Autographs took place afterwards – where kids and parents alike had the opportunity to have posters signed and pictures taken with players. Dante Reno held at least 4 babies and took photos with numerous kids. Needless to say the Massachusetts native felt the love from the Gamecock fans.
