This Reporter Did Not Expect To Find A Dog Riding On A Lawnmower While Surveying Storm Damage

KYTX reporter Andrea Martinez was out surveying the damage to area homes and businesses due to violent storms that ripped through the Malakoff, Texas area Tuesday, when she came across the incredible scene in the above clip. Like, this could not have been any more perfect if it had been directed by J.J. Abrams himself. While the camera pans around the wreckage, Martinez suddenly exclaims with genuine excitement and delight, “Oh my god. Come see! Look at that dog!” The camera quickly jumps up and takes a moment while zooming into focus, and sure enough: there is a dog sitting on a riding lawnmower.

The only way the scene could have been better is if someone had the foresight to get the dog a pair of sunglasses, trucker hat, and ice cold can of Bud to complete the look. In the age of Damn Daniel‘s and Kim Kardashian nude selfies dominating the internet, it’s nice to periodically be reminded that it still can be a wonderful place. All I’m saying is, Parry Gripp can’t write a song about this soon enough.
