“#Real-life ‘Elf’ scene as man meets biological dad in Boston<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

Just like a real-life movie, the story of Buddy the Elf meeting his biological father has come to life, just in time for the holidays.<\/p>\n

Doug Henning wore a costume like the one actor Will Ferrell\u2019s character wore in \u201cElf\u201d while meeting his father face to face for the first time last week at Boston\u2019s Logan Airport. He even broke into the same awkward song from the 2003 movie \u2014 sample lyrics: \u201cI\u2019m here, with my dad. And we never met, and he wants me to sing him a song!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen he came out of the airport, he probably thought I was a lunatic,\u201d Henning, 43, of Eliot, Maine, told Boston.com<\/a>. \u201cIt was a really good way to break the ice.\u201d<\/p>\n

His biological father didn\u2019t get the joke because he hadn\u2019t seen the movie, which is about a man raised at the North Pole who meets his dad for the first time. But that didn\u2019t stop him from giving his son a big hug.<\/p>\n

Henning said he was raised by \u201camazing\u201d adoptive parents but he was excited when cousins he met through ancestry.com helped to put him in touch with his biological father. Just like the movie, the father didn\u2019t know about his son.<\/p>\n

The two met on Zoom and Henning\u2019s dad was able to fly to Boston for Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n

Henning said he was inspired to dress as the character from \u201cElf\u201d after watching the movie before the meetup. Henning said his father gained a son and became a grandfather. Henning is the first of the father\u2019s children to become a parent.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
