U.S. Army Sergeant Daniel Urman came home from Afghanistan and surprised his parents at an Arizona Coyotes game Saturday in Glendale.
Standing on a red carpet laid out over the rink, Eitan and Ronit Urman were about to drop the ceremonial puck when their son snuck up on them from behind. Daniel gave his father Eitan such a big hug that the two toppled over.
Urman was fulfilling his second deployment, and his family was not expecting him to come home until May, according to the Phoenix news station 12 News.
