J.J. Watt surprises young fan who sang National Anthem at Rockets game (Video)

Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt surprised a young fan who pleased the crowd with a wonderful rendition of the National Anthem at the Houston Rockets game Tuesday night.

Click2Houston noted that after 12-year-old Nicholas Connors belted out the anthem Watt ran up to him on the court and surprised him.

The moment was posted to Vine and it shows Connors' excitement when he realizes the guy congratulating him is the Texans star.

The exchange has since went viral and on Wednesday, Watt asked for help from his hundreds of thousands of Twitter followers to find and get him in contact with the young singer.

So far there has been no word yet on if Watt located Connors, but with the power of social media it should only be a matter of time.

As for the actual game, the Rockets won and took a 2-0 lead on the series which had the 26-year-old Watt break into his happy dance with a fellow fan. That video has also gone viral.

Check out Connors’ version of the National Anthem, his reaction to seeing Watt, and the athlete’s dance moves below:
