Graduation Parade Held For Baltimore Sports Superfan Mo Gaba

A graduation parade held Tuesday for Baltimore sports superfan Mo Gaba had a large turnout of family, friends, the Baltimore Ravens mascot and some Baltimore Orioles players.

Gaba, 14 years old and blind, has been fighting cancer since he was 9 months old and is battling cancer for a fourth time. A recent scan showed the cancer has spread throughout his body.

He has been a staple in the Baltimore area as a huge sports fan. Gaba has been a guest on WBAL NewsRadio 1090 and FM 101.5, WBAL-TV 11 and sister station 98 Rock. Two years ago, he became the first person to read a NFL draft pick using a braille card.
