One of the best aspects of the holidays is seeing the reaction from someone after they receive the perfect gift. A young Kentucky fan provided us with one of those moments.

The youngster received Citrus Bowl tickets on Christmas, and he’ll be in Orlando to watch Kentucky take on Penn State on Jan. 1. As you can tell, he was overwhelmed with joy and disbelief.

The tickets were a gift from his father, who shared his son’s awesome reaction on social media.

Watching these videos never gets old.

Kentucky had one of the best years in program history, spending a majority of the season ranked in the top 25. The Wildcats were also in the SEC East race for a good chunk of the year, too.

The young fan should get to take in a pretty good game with some explosive players on both teams. While he’ll be hoping for a Kentucky win, just attending the game is a thrill itself.
