Dakota Cadd/CBS NEWS

Bubba Cadd a teenager in Wisconsin who has cerebral palsy and developmental issues, loves trucks more than anything.

His family’s yard faces a highway, so Bubba likes to sit outside and get truckers to honk when they go by. Last month, his mom noticed a small model truck sitting in their yard and realized one of the truck drivers must have put it there for him.

Mom’s post looking for the driver went viral on Facebook and truck drivers created “18 Wheels for Bubba.”

Last weekend, truckers from all over the country showed up in Milton, Wisconsin, lined their trucks up in a big parking lot and surprised Bubba with a huge party.

Over a thousand people were waiting to wish him a happy birthday, almost 200 tractor-trailers and other trucks were there to celebrate.

Bubba was able to ride around in a golf cart and see every single one of them.
