Leigh Anne and Sean Tuohy, the Memphis, Tennessee, Couple that Adopted Michael Oher, as depicted in the Movie, "Blind Side," Attended Sunday's NFC Championship Game in Charlotte, N.C.
The Tuohys were on the field celebrating with Oher after Carolina won 49-15 to advance to Super Bowl 50
Love that Michael Oher and so glad he is a Panther. Love your real family and the
Movie that told about your amazing parents. Can't wait until you get the SUPER
BOWL RING !!!!
////Oher posted this picture on social media ////
( Essentially his mother?!?! SHE is his mother!!! She has supported him in
high school, college and now the NFL. She gave him a stable and loving home
environment. I hate it when people and news outlets say real mom or anything else
that makes adopted Moms seem less than what they are. )
You can bet the Tuohys will be pulling for Michael Oher in the Super Bowl.
Living in Tennessee, they were diehard Ole Miss fans. They didn't want Oher to go to the University of Tennessee, where Denver quarterback Peyton Manning had a legendary college career.
Oher went to Ole Miss and later was drafted in the first round by the Baltimore Ravens, with whom he won the Super Bowl in the 2012 season
Carolina players like to pick on Oher about the movie. Oher said he doesn't mind. He said it helped put him at ease with his new teammates when he was signed as a free agent during the offseason.
