The real "Blind Side" family will be attending the Super Bowl with actress Sandra Bullock to support and cheer for the Baltimore Ravens athlete Michael Oher.

Bullock played the as Oher's adopted mother who took him off the street and helped him start playing football while in High school.  Bullock won an Oscar for her playing the maternal lead of Leigh Anne Tuohy, a determined woman who wants to desperately help him get out of a dangerous and troubled life. According to Entertainment Tonight, Bullock is in New Orleans to spend time with the family on Oher's big game day on February 3, "She will be donning her 74 jersey on Sunday and cheering for the Ravens."

According to The Associated Press Oher's adopted father Sean Tuohy reflected on the connections of his film and his current life today, "And there are people that think that's a coincidence," Sean Tuohy said. "How stupid is that?" He added, "We've got a huge sign in our garage that says: 'We believe in miracles,'" he continued. "For other people, it may be hard to understand that. For us, it's easy."

Tuohy told the AP, "To me, when I look at Michael, the only down side of it is, you sit there and go, 'If someone as immensely talented as Michael Oher, that society pretty much didn't value, almost falls through the cracks, can you imagine who gets left behind," Leigh Anne Tuohy said. "So you sit there and go, 'How many kids are out there that if given a chance can be a Michael Oher.'"
