In a Reddit post that has gone viral in the last 24 hours, u/FacelessOnes posted a photo of 70 year old Kenny Bourbeau playing pinball outside of Dover's own Tokens Taproom.
The post reads, "Kenny Bourbeau is 70 and grew up playing pinball. As a heart patient, he couldn't risk going to his favorite arcade after it reopened, so he said he'd stop by just to say hello "from outside". The owner had his favorite pinball machine waiting for him on the sidewalk."
It's so refreshing to see such genuine kindness being shown to one another that we don't see as much in the news these days.
Kenny has been an active pinball player for 10 years and is also an internationally ranked pinball player through the International Flipper Pinball Association.
The hearts of Redditors were quickly captured by the photo, one saying, "That man can have all my quarters." Another says, "I should quit the internet today. I have the warm and fuzzy feels." The post has already gathered more than 100,000 upvotes and over 1,000 comments online.
We can all hope to see more kindness and compassion for others as the years goes on.
