Sam Schreiner is 18, lives in Lincoln, and was born with Down syndrome and other medical conditions. His affection for football and the Nebraska Cornhuskers has stayed with him. On Friday, neighbors, family, and Herbie Husker surprised him with a limousine ride to the Bob Devaney Center for a weekend of Husker festivities, 10/11 NOW reported. The station published the story on October 9, 2026.

Dream on 3 arranges sports experiences for young people with disabilities. Nebraska co-captain Arden Louchheim called Schreiner a light who makes a room smile, and said the group wanted to give some of that joy back. The send-off turns a long-held Husker wish into a weekend with a date, a crowd of neighbors, and a ride waiting at the curb.
