One of my favorite things in the digital scene during the holidays are the creative campaigns and acts of good cheer that people post! And I am awarding my first ever Social Media Holiday Cheer Award!! This act transforms one of the worst things that can happen in a day to one of the best.
Ever been pulled over? Not that I have (wink wink) but I would imagine that the feeling you get in your stomach when you see police lights behind your car is TERRIBLE. Well, in Lowell, Michigan, the local police teamed up with UPtv (short for Uplifting TV) to transform that experience.
The police pulled over drivers on a snowy afternoon for supposed traffic violations. The video then shows the drivers getting out their license and registration while the police office makes small talk with them, namely about what they or their children want for Christmas. Then, in an incredible sneak attack, the officer stalls the fake ticketing process long enough to radio to his co-workers at the nearby toy store who bring the exact wish-list gift! Instead of getting a traffic ticket, the unassuming drivers get a wonderful holiday surprise!
The video is awesome and guaranteed to make you smile!!
