The Uber passenger, Cam, visited Buffalo, New York to attend the upcoming NFL Wild Card Round playoffs game. He was in the area to support his team, the Pittsburgh Steelers, as they take on the Buffalo Bills.

However, he revealed: “Best part of my trip” was when he ditched his Airbnb for a free guided city tour. “My Uber driver is like 70+. His wife passed 2 years ago & he said he drives to make the days go by fast.

“Goes to drop me off at my Airbnb. I get out & he goes ‘what’re you doing for the day? I’m done driving & could give you a tour of the city.’ Humanity.”
