Over the weekend Lil Wayne was at the Indianapolis International Airport waiting for his unexpected play delay to be over with when unexpectedly, Lil Wayne saw a military C130 land next to his jet.
It all happened when his delay was about done with and the plane was ready to taxi when Weezy told his pilot to turn the plane off and let him out!
It was Weezy and some of his boys on the plane too.
With no media paparazzi near, Lil Wayne was captured by one of the airports employees shaking hands, taking pictures and thanking every single military person there, all 30 of them.
In the picture snapped by the employee, Amanda, you see Lil Wayne doing this impromptu meet and greet with a genuine big smile
Amanda did post the on picture that she took on her Facebook page, Amanda Cooper Lickliter, and even though it doesn’t have many “likes”, the post does have over 4,800 shares to it.
The picture is of the one military men with Weezy who was smiling and happily posing together.
As for the posting, her original picture caption is this:

So Lil Wayne came through IND today. At the same time he was due to depart, there was a military C130 arriving. It parked next to the Gulfstream he was on, and about 30 men in uniform crossed the ramp into the lobby. After they walked in front of the G-550, Lil Wayne apparently told his pilots he wanted off. They shut down their engines, and he and his boys got off their plane, came into the lobby, and shook every one of the service men’s hands. There was no press and no one to show off for…just a seemingly genuine act of respect. I know a lot of controversy surrounds him but, today, I was impressed.
And along with that, she did comment a few times with some other positive notations about what she’s saw saying:
“I’ve liked him from day one. He can get a little raunchy for me sometimes, but I’m still a fan. He made me smile even before this by treating my line guys with respect… his entire entourage was friendly as hell too. Doesn’t happen often. And then to see his whole crew jump off their plan, just as they were getting ready to taxi away, and come in to make my military men smile.. it was great. And here I thought my cookies and the pizzas I ordered for them would be the highlights of their day!”
And she also responded to people by saying:
“So someone asked me where the other 29 soldiers were.. It’s a decent-sized lobby and I caught this shot just as he was getting ready to walk back out to his plane. The remaining military is to the left of my picture, getting coffee, using the restroom, smoking outside, and eating cookies/popcorn. Just thought I would cliffy since there seem to be some doubt. “
These days you don’t usually see the stars having an impromptu meet and greet, but seeing Lil Wayne doing this shows what an outstanding man he is. And to know that he thanks his fans during his concerts over and over again is something else.
