Hoover family Wins $10,000 On America's Funniest Videos

The Riddle family of Hoover won first place in America's Funniest Videos.

HOOVER, AL - A messy moment with the kids turned into a first-place video for the Riddle family of Hoover. When Robin Riddle heard her children call to her one morning to see that it was "snowing" outside, she had a feeling this was going to be a weird moment. Sure enough she found her three boys - ages 5. 4 and one - with the small white stuffing of a bean bag all over the room, playing in simulated "snow."

After posting the video to Facebook, family and friends urged Robin to send it to America's Funniest Videos. Weeks later, the Riddle family was flying to L.A to be on the show. The Riddle's won that week's first place prize of $10,000, and now qualify for the grand prize of $100,000.
