Parents whose kids grow up to be professional athletes have likely sacrificed a lot to get them there.
Between never ending practices, games taking up entire weekends, smelly sports gear scattered around the backseat, and cutting up about a bazillion orange slices, sports parents definitely pay their dues. When an athlete becomes one of the chosen few to join a pro sports team, it’s the result of a lifetime of hard work and true devotion to the sport.
Terrell Burgess is one of those success stories. His mom, Ingrid Hennie-Burgess, has supported him since he was running around in diapers. Burgess played football at the University of Utah before joining the Los Angeles Rams as a safety. In 2022, the Rams took home the biggest prize in the NFL when they became Super Bowl Champions!
After such a huge success, Burgess found the perfect way to thank his mom for helping make that win possible. How? By surprising her with a brand new car! It seems she didn’t suspect a thing, and her reaction is so, so sweet.
“Happy birthday!” Burgess joked. “Merry Christmas! Happy Mother’s Day for the next eight years!”
Watch Ingrid’s tear-jerking reaction to her surprise below, and be sure to share with a friend.
