MOST Arsenal fans are over the moon on meeting their heroes. But young Gunner Stratos Kiousis from Angel couldn’t hold back the tears when the18-month-old tot met Robin van Persie at a special Dinosaur’s Picnic at the Emirates Stadium.
The Dutch striker joined mascot Gunnersaurus and the club’s youngest supporters – all members of the Welcome to our World tier of the Junior Gunners membership scheme – for a dinosaur themed puppet show.
Hotshot van Persie, who is the ambassador of the under four’s group, said: “This is my second year as an ambassador to the club’s youngest supporters and I really enjoy having the opportunity to interact with parents and the children.
“I have two young kids myself and know how much they love football, and Arsenal of course! It was a pleasure to be there and enjoy the event.”
