Sylvester Stallone Ambushes College FB Player With Scholarship Offer

Here's Sylvester Stallone helping a college football player live out his real-life "Rudy" moment ... surprising the walk-on with a scholarship offer in front of the whole squad.

It went down at a recent Western Michigan football practice ... first, walk-on linebacker Kasey Carson was singled out by the coaching staff for his leadership and guts, then everyone was told to look up at the jumbo screen.

That's when Sly took it away ... informing the whole program the kid had earned a full ride, and praising him for his attitude ... all set to the 'Rocky' theme.

Check out the clip ... and wrap yourself in its awesomeness.
