A grandaughter's Tweet about her grandfather has made him an overnight star the world over. Kelsey Harmon from Oklahoma took to Twitter to voice her disappointment after her cousins didn't show up for a planned dinner with their 'Pawpaw'. Kelsey wrote: 'Dinner with papaw tonight... He made 12 burgers for all six grandkids and I'm the only one who showed. love him [sic].' The accompanying photograph of her devastated grandfather eating a burger at his kitchen table left many Twitter users in tears, prompting an outpouring of love and support for everyone's favourite Pawpaw... and a wave of shame on the no-show grandkids.
