Chris Evans and Chris Pratt Visit Kids at Seattle Hospital

The visit left an impression on Evans, too, who said the children were the “true superheroes.”
Marvel movie stars Chris Pratt, left, and Chris Evans visit young patients at Seattle Children’s Hospital on Saturday as part of a Super Bowl bet in which everyone was a winner.
If Pratt’s team — the Seattle Seahawks — won the Super Bowl, Evans pledged to visit Seattle Children’s Hospital dressed as Captain America. If Evan’s team — the New England Patriots — won, Pratt would visit Christopher’s Haven in Boston dressed as “Guardians of the Galaxy” character Star-Lord, wearing Patriots quarterback Tom Brady’s jersey.
The Patriots won, but the two actors visited both hospitals anyway — Pratt dressed as “Guardians of the Galaxy” character Star-Lord and Evans dressed as Captain America for Saturday’s visit.
Evans showed up in full Captain America regalia bearing gifts for the young patients.
“Meeting them was a nice reprieve for us,” the mother of patient Oskar Beechum said. “So many of our visitors are doctors, and the conversations are medical. I can’t wait to watch the Captain America movie with Oskar. It will be like he knows him personally now.”
