Florence Police Chief Ron Tyler and his family recently took home a prize of $20,000 from “America’s Funniest Videos.”

The chief’s son was learning where to use the bathroom. When asked by his dad where to go, he gave an answer that was probably not the one his Dad was hoping to hear.

The prize winning video is posted in a tweet below:

This is not the first time an Alabama family has won money from the show.

In 2017, Robin Riddle and her family, who are from Hoover, won $10,000 after they submitted a video showing her young sons having their own “snow day.” However, the snow wasn’t snow.

The three boys had taken the small white stuffing of a bean bag and scattered it across their bedroom making their very own winter wonderland.
