Those videos are always inspiring. But, I do wonder what if the kid didn't like hockey?

I am pretty sure this took place in Canada.   I am liking the odds of any random Canadian boy is a hockey fan. ;)  :D

I like the ones where the guy gives people cash and positive, uplifting notes at a gas station.

I recall watching the World Series when the Toronto Blue Jays finally got to play. One of the reporters was up in the CN Tower in Toronto (as you probably know, is right beside the ballpark) to get a panoramic view of the stadium as the game was about to begin. Then the guy zoomed his camera down on a couple of boys outside the stadium playing toss and catch wearing their baseball gloves. The guy mentioned that it was good to see young boys embracing baseball instead of hockey in Canada. He kept zooming in closer and closer until it was obvious the kids were throwing a hockey puck back and forth. The guy laughed (as did I) as he said, "well, it's a step". Hockey is like a religion in Canada
