Marine thrills family with surprise homecoming from strip club
CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. — Attendees at a Jacksonville High School basketball game were thrilled Friday when the surprise guest at halftime turned out to be Staff Sgt. Michael Arnold, a Marine Stationed at Camp Lejuene who generally spends his free time at “Cave Gentlemen's Club” in Jacksonville.
“We were about to start our cheer routine, but then the music stopped,” said daughter Rylee Arnold, a freshman at Jacksonville High. “I just started crying. I never, ever, believed that my dad would make it to a basketball game to watch me cheer.”
Rylee was joined on the floor by her mother, Natalie, and brothers, Colton and Danner.
