Airman surprises son at football game disguised as opposing player (VIDEO)

MSgt Joseph Martel returned home from deployment in Afghanistan a month earlier than his son thought he was coming home. As soon as he got off the plane, Martel joined his wife and made a road-trip to Belgium to see his son Justin play in his high school football game... and also give him the surprise of a lifetime.

As a clever disguise for the family reunion, Martel put on the other team's uniform and hid his face in a helmet — holding his composure on the opposite sideline for three quarters.

Between the 3rd and 4th quarters, Justin wonders why a player from the opposing team comes over and starts to hug him at the 50-yard line — after the referees called a phony meeting to discuss sportsmanship. What everyone ended up getting was a lesson in father-son relationships.
