“My car got stuck in the snow before the game & a nice guy named Dave help pull me out without knowing I was a player,” Allen tweeted early Sunday. “I want to give him tickets to the AFC championship game for helping but don’t have a way to contact him. He drove a 97 or 98 Black Suburban. Pls RT.”

The Kansas City Star reported that Allen said he got the man's number after he helped him, but lost it when someone called him before he could save Dave's number in his phone.
The call-out to Twitter ultimately worked, and Allen was able to find the real Dave who assisted him.
