An overzealous dad in a full-fledged Buddy the Elf costume – from the 2003 Will Ferrell film – to pick up his daughter after school, and her shameful response was invaluable.
« Oh my goodness it’s Alayna! » Gregory Sumsion yelled at his high schooler while wearing the yellow and green outfit and curly wig. « I know her! I know her! » he continued as he approached his shocked daughter, who exclaimed, « Why am I related to you ?! » when her mom was shooting it for TikTok nearby. The video has been viewed nearly 6 million times.
« I want to sing you a song, » shouted the shameless father, jumping around in the snow and excitedly grabbing his teenage daughter. « Alayna, I’m here and I love you! » he was singing as she jokingly knocked him away.
But don’t worry: she probably won’t have a large lump of coal in her stocking this year. “My daughter had the biggest smile when we got to the car,” Sumsion said to one commentator, adding for another, “When we got in the car, she said, Dad, I love you so much. ”
Perhaps it’s no surprise that the elf impersonator’s Instagram bio reads, “A father who loves his children. ”
A second ambush at the school showed the father picking up his son Evan from school while he was wearing the festive ensemble again. In it he started a pillow fight with the beaming boy, which ended in a big hug as other children watched.
In another video, the father was handing out toys to kids in a grocery store from a red gift bag and passing on best wishes from Papa Elf, another character – played by Bob Newhart – in the cult favorite comedy film.
He’s not the first to borrow a loan from the Christmas movie to spread holiday joy. Another man donned the buddy look earlier this month when, just like in the movie, he first met his biological father, in this case at Boston Logan Airport.
