The expression on Glen Conner’s face was priceless.

Conner was in awe and disbelief when his son, Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner, surprised him with a new truck.

James Conner captured the moment on Twitter, posting a one-minute video Saturday that shows his father’s reaction to being presented with the black GMC truck.

“Are you serious?” Glen Conner says as James leans in for a hug.

Glen tries to hand the keys back to James.

“Pops, that’s yours,” James responds.

The video cuts away to the Conners embracing and celebrating the purchase.

“You’re going to be riding in style,” James says.

“Hey, ain’t nobody gonna tell me nothing now,” Glen says as the video ends.

The video has been viewed 5.7 million times as of Monday morning.

James Conner is entering his fourth season with the Steelers and third as the team’s starting running back.
