As a dad, I used to get all teary-eyed when my kids returned home from a weekend sleepover. I can't even imagine the joy these parents must have felt when their son returned home from Afghanistan. Their reunion happened at a Coyotes hockey game.

Watch how the son and father fall to the ice after an emotional embrace. The entire arena...the crowd, the players, the announcers...all enjoyed sharing in this family's special moment. I know that there are a ton of these kinds of videos online but it seems that no matter how many times people see them, it still leaves a big lump in the throat and tears in the eyes.
