Youth sports parents can be one of the most annoying sub-species of human beings, mostly because they can’t admit their kid probably isn’t going to be a first round draft pick, but there are some that get “it.”
One hockey dad in Canada wanted to see what his 4-year-old son actually did during his hockey practice – because playing hockey was low on the list – so he mic’d up the little dude and the results are pure comedy gold.
Hockey is a lot of work, and by the end of the practice little man is just trying to butter up his dad for a McDonald’s run, and having arguments with imaginary people called “paint cans.” Being four is fun. Congrats to his dad for not ruining it by yelling at him for not being ready for the NHL.
