New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu came to the aid of a contestant choking on a lobster roll at an eating contest. Sununu performed the Heimlich maneuver on Christian Moreno before first responders took over.

The commotion came from behind him. At first, he thought it might have been a fight breaking out.On the other side of Bud’s Classic BBQ in downtown Columbia, Peter Burns was, in fact, choking. The SEC Network anchor and ESPN radio personality was eating with conference Commissioner Greg Sankey and the broadcast crew for Saturday’s football game when a piece of steak became lodged in his throat.He signaled to the other people at the table that he couldn’t breathe.

Foster is a self-proclaimed Jersey boy who moved from the East Coast to Missouri in 1996. Marrying Heather meant marrying into a family of Missouri fans — the “best decision I made,” Foster said. Thankful for him and all of those who do CPR and safety training. https://t.co/4PERxiJ2pV pic.twitter.com/6kw3iRghUg

It was, if nothing else, a life-saving coincidence. Foster was the fourth person to attempt the Heimlich on Burns — the cleanup hitter, as Burns joked. “Appreciate Jack stepping up and being a hero when he was needed to be a hero,” Drinkwitz said at his Tuesday news conference.“I’m not a hero,” he said. “I was just one of the guys that did their job.”

The way Foster sees the world, though, is not about wanting to help out one time. It’s about seeking opportunities to do that on a regular basis.
