Clemson Football || Father returns from Afghanistan to surprise son before a game

CPT Cody Lucas, United States Army, Signal Advisor with the 1st Security Force Assistance Brigade, returned from Afghanistan this week.

His son Ty is a freshman running back, and he had no idea that his father was waiting as he prepared for Clemson's Military Appreciation Game.

I lost my Dad four days ago to cancer. The time you have with your parents and loved ones is special, don’t waste it.

He went from a footballer to a little boy seeing his daddy in an instant.

every kid no matter how old deserves a hug from their father

[theshipper]

A real man isn't scared to cry for a father he loves. It shows how dear you hold them in your heart.
Note: Woah, one year and this many likes? Dang.

I served with him. He’s a freaking warfighter… an absolute great person to work with.

One thing you gotta understand is that when this soilders say goodbye before going on a tour, there's a chance they'll never see each other again, that's why when they come back it's always so emotional

U know u have done ur job as a parent when ur child is able to cry in front of u!!!

[frankwhite]

I felt just like this kid every time i saw my dad growing up and i saw him everyday. He’s 73 now and im 44 and we still cant wait to see each other. Nothing like a bond between father and son…best friend for life

[tomhulme]

Shout out to fathers who stick around and do right by their family

[tywi]

You can just see him turn into a little boy seeing his dad. So awesome.

The parents look almost as young as he does

My father passed when he was 90 years old and he was my hero, I miss him and my mother every day, even though I’m an old guy now I wish I still had them in my life ❤️

I served with cpt Lucas in 2014, he’s a good man. He’s boy got big. 💪🏽

[carolinescogin]

I personally know this family, they are such a wonderful family

[Flashphotography]

The adrenaline was definitely going cause he almost walked past him.

My dad wasn't in the army but he worked a graveyard shift in construction and I rarely saw him as a child. But there were times where he surprised me after school to take me home and that always had me jumping for joy. I'm 20 now and I'm thankful that I have a close relationship with him and get to see him often now. This video gave me a lot of good memories as a kid with my dad.

This family has the fountain of youth in their backyard

[cobrahcommander]

He didnt see his dad at first bc of the successful camo. Lmao

Me: *Scroling through my recomend section*
Youtube: Wanna cry?

[roberthall]

The look he gives his father at 1:32 is something that can't be faked.
That's true love .
