Surprise military homecomings at sporting events always seem to be a little more touching when they involve a parent and one of their young children. Sure, people will always be a little cynical about these things, but it’s really hard to do that when you see a toddler get excited about seeing his dad for the first time in months.
That happened at Friday’s game between the Tennessee Smokies and the Montgomery Biscuits. Sgt. Adam Dowell surprised his young son, who just spun around while blindfolded a few times, and gave us a pretty spectacular moment. We’ll let the fine folks behind the Smokies’ Twitter account ask what we’re all wondering right now:
Is it just us, or is it a little dusty here right now?
