Please enjoy the best thing to ever happen on Fox News.

Reporter Casey Stegall received a surprise treat during his extremely wet coverage of Hurricane Harvey on Friday—a six-pack of local beer from a scene-stealing local.

In the clip, which was later tweeted by Fox News, Stegall is mid-sentence when a woman darts into the frame. "Brought you guys some Galveston beer!" she says (well, shouts).

"Well, thank you. That will be nice for after we are done covering this," Stegall replies. (Many thanks for clarifying.)

After the broadcast, Stegall also tweeted about his uninvited guest. "Now that's what I call a GOOD photo bomb!" he wrote. "She was very sweet and even gave me a hug ... moment of levity, reporting on serious matters."

Per The Wrap, the woman does not, in fact, work for Galveston Island Brewing Company. She just really, really likes their beer. More power to her—may we all love something so much that we want to gift it to a random man in a hurricane.
