That UPS driver dropping off your last-minute Christmas gifts may be an internet celebrity.
A Thursday tweet from a photographer who was shooting on location in Sanford and happened to take a pic of a UPS driver making deliveries has gone viral.
I was doing a photoshoot in downtown Sanford when this UPS delivery man kindly interrupted and asked for a picture.
THIS IS THE BEST PICTURE OUT THE WHOLE PHOTOSHOOT!

As of midday Saturday, the picture had more than 256,000 likes and 45,000 retweets, with comments from folks all over the world.
And, as usual, the Internet remains undefeated. The UPS driver was later identified by his family on Twitter as Jermey Watkins. He resides in Southern Pines:
