The Olympian surprised “Dear Eat Bulaga” letter sender Jezzy, a 13-year-old gymnast. Jezzy’s unexpected meeting with Caloy brought the young gymnast to tears.
Furthermore, Caloy gifted Jezzy with his “pampaswerte” — a plastic box container.
“Sarili mo yan? ’Pag lumalaban ka, dala mo yung sarili mo? Hindi mo ginagamit yung chalk box nila?” Tito Sotto asked the Caloy.
To which the Carlos replied, “Hindi po. May dala po akong sarili.”
“Nakakatuwa nga Tito Sen eh, yung iba, ang sososyal pa… Tapos yung kay Caloy, ganyan oh, tupperware. Nakakatuwa,” Allan K remarked.

His science teacher said that the Adamsonians were all so proud of him. Caloy’s English teacher noted that one thing that really helped Caloy was his humility, underscoring that he was never “mayabang.”
