For one young rock fan from the UK, a difficult day at school was completely forgotten thanks to an act of incredible kindness from the biggest band in the world.
Ten-year-old William, a devoted AC/DC fan, was left thrilled and speechless after receiving a surprise care package from the rock icons themselves. The heartwarming gesture was orchestrated by his mother, who reached out to the band after a particularly challenging day for her son, who is autistic.
A Mother's Plea To Rock Royalty
William's mum, Kayley, decided to shoot her shot, sending a message to the band via their official website. She explained how her son was a "massive fan" who found solace and joy in their music, especially after facing difficulties and bullying from other children.
She never truly expected a reply from the global superstars. But just days later, an official response landed in her inbox, asking for their address. The family was about to receive a delivery that would create a core memory for a lifetime.
The Ultimate Care Package Arrives
The parcel, sent directly by the band, was filled to the brim with official merchandise that any fan would covet. Inside was a treasure trove of rock and roll swag, including:
- A coveted AC/DC beanie
- Two high-quality t-shirts
- A sleek keyring
- A collection of iconic guitar plectrums
- A signed photograph from the band's legendary frontman, Brian Johnson
The signed photo even included a personal message for William, reading: "William, stay cool! Your pal, Brian Johnson."
A Dream Come True After A Tough Day
Kayley presented the gifts to her son after he returned home from school. His reaction, which she captured on video, was one of pure, unadulterated joy and disbelief. His face lit up as he carefully examined each item, declaring it "the best day ever."
"It was just the best thing to see him so happy," Kayley said. "He was so shocked. For them to take the time to do that for a little boy... it just means the world." The surprise served as a powerful reminder that a simple act of kindness can drown out the noise of a bad day and restore faith in people—even rock gods.
