Iowa Hawkeye Football Player Zach Twedt Turns Flat Tire Fiasco into a Heartwarming Rescue

An Iowa Hawkeye football player stopped to fix a mom’s flat tire on an interstate. Read this touching story! ❤️🚗

 

 

On my way back from my son’s track meet in Minnesota, disaster struck: a flat tire on an Iowa interstate. I’ll admit—I don’t know the first thing about changing a tire. I tried to request roadside assistance through my Allstate app, but out in the middle of nowhere, my phone couldn’t catch a signal. Frustrated, I fumbled with my phone, debating whether to call Allstate directly—a process I knew would take longer. I braced myself for a hours-long wait, picturing my kids and me stranded on the side of the road as the sun dipped lower. Then, my son’s voice broke through my worry: “Mom, someone’s here.”

I looked up, and there he was—a guy seemingly out of nowhere, decked out in Iowa Hawkeye gear. “Can I help you?” he asked, his tone warm and genuine. That stranger was Zach Twedt, a football player for the Iowa Hawkeyes, and what he did next turned a stressful situation into a moment I’ll never forget. Zach didn’t hesitate; he got to work, changing the tire with the kind of ease that comes from knowing exactly what you’re doing. I stood there, grateful and a little in awe, as he swapped out the flat and got us road-ready in no time.

I can still see him wiping his hands on his Hawkeye sweatshirt, a small smile on his face as he made sure we were good to go. He could’ve driven right past us—most people would have—but he didn’t. Zach stopped for a stranger, a mom just trying to get her kids home safely, and his kindness made all the difference. I wanted to shout out his good deed to the world, to let everyone know what a great guy he is. May God bless him for his generosity that day.

Shared by Ivy Green, this isn’t just a flat tire story—it’s a reminder that kindness can show up when you least expect it. Zach Twedt, a Hawkeye hero on and off the field, proved that being a good dude means stopping to help, no matter the rush. His act of compassion turned a roadside headache into a heartwarming memory, one that’ll stick with me and my kids for years to come.
