L.A. Chargers and Terry Crews surprise Compton students with brand new bikes

Hundreds of students at McNair Elementary School in Compton received a major surprise on Monday morning.

They were all treated to a new bicycle thanks to the Los Angeles Chargers and former Chargers linebacker and "America’s Got Talent" host Terry Crews.

This was all made possible by the Chargers' impact fund Bikes for Kids giveaway.

Earlier this month, the students were asked to participate in an essay competition. They were told that only selected winners would receive a new bike, but that wasn't the case.

At a special assembly, it was revealed that everyone at the school was going to get a brand-new shiny bike complete with a helmet. McNair Elementary ranges from TK to 6th grade.

"That bad news is I don't have one more bike," Bill Pollakov, co-founder of the Bikes for Kids Foundation told the students. "The good news is, everybody is going to be getting a bike!"

The surprising announcement was received with cheers and screams from the children.

Crews, along with other Chargers legends Marcellus Wiley, Antoine Cason, Kassim Osgood, and Mike Scifres, were also on hand to help distribute new bikes just in time for the holidays.

"This year’s event will mark the first time every student at a school, more than 400 children, will receive a bike," a press release stated.

That wasn't the only surprise.

There was also a special gift for a teacher the kids know as Mr. Bill.

Crews surprised Mr. Bill with two tickets to Super Bowl LIX, which takes place in New Orleans, Louisiana on Feb. 9, 2025.

In addition to McNair Elementary, the Chargers Impact Fund, Bikes for Kids Foundation and the Brady Hunter Foundation also donated 200 additional bikes to Para Los Niños, a charter school supporting families in Skid Row, Downtown Los Angeles, and East LA.
