Brandy Rodriguez and her in-laws were dining at a Chick-fil-A location in Fayetteville, N.C., when they stopped to snap a photo with the chicken-chain’s cow mascot. But just a few seconds after she said “cheese” (or “chicken,” rather), the costumed man removed his bovine head and revealed himself to be Brandy’s husband, Antonio, who had just returned from deployment.
Brandy and Antonio immediately embraced, and the couple’s family couldn’t hold back their tears.
“Oh, no way!” one of Rodriguez’s relatives can be heard saying.
