Tim Tebow Holds More Than 200 Proms For People With Special Needs

And Tebow showed up to one in New York, too.

Former NFL quarterback Tim Tebow and his eponymous foundation held more than 200 proms for people with special needs in 48 states and seven countries on Friday.

The event was called "Night to Shine" and encouraged people with physical and mental disabilities to enjoy a night of music, dancing and all-around fun.

According to Tebow's foundation, 32,000 people formally attended the event and a combined 70,000 volunteered to help make the night happen.

Tebow, now a SEC Network analyst, also decided to surprise some of the attendees by personally showing up to their prom, which he documented on his Twitter and Instagram pages.
