While many were in attendance for the 99th Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, NBC weatherman Al Roker had a surprise for one lucky young fan. The little girl's honest reaction to winning a "golden ticket" had many laughing online.
During the parade festivities, Roker was joined by the Radio City Rockettes to give the young girl a Golden Ticket to see them perform at their yearly holiday show. The ticket parodied the famous item Charlie receives from Willy Wonka in the original movie to enter his chocolate factory.
To many's comical surprise, Roker asked the young girl if she was excited to see the Rockettes perform.
"I did that yesterday," she responded with a smile.
Roker couldn't help but laugh at the coincidence and tried to turn things around by saying she would get to see them again, but for free. Many online couldn't help but comment on the comical moment and the girl's honesty.

One commentator pointed out, "The first question the producer should've asked the parents, man The surprise element is nice but *y'all* should not be surprised lol."
Other's agreed that production should have checked in with the parents before giving away the golden ticket, but also found the moment undoubtedley funny regardless.
