A Milwaukee reporter received a snowy surprise just before she went live on air on Thursday, and fortunately for us, it was captured on video.

Fox6 News’ Amy DuPont is seen in the video standing by a snowy roadside preparing for her segment on live television.

Unluckily for her, someone decided to make use of the conditions and throw a rather large snowball right between her eyes.

As seen in the video, the culprit rushes into frame, laughing, “I’m so sorry!” as DuPont descends into fits of giggles, wiping the snow from her eyes.

You’d think it had been a stranger who threw a snowball at this unsuspecting newscaster’s face, but this crime against broadcasting was committed by DuPont’s colleague Eddie.

She won’t forget that moment in a hurry, and neither will the 15,000 people who have viewed the video online so far.
