Gender reveal party fail: Dad kicks paint-filled ball into neighbor’s yard
At least their guests got a kick out of it too.

A soccer-themed gender reveal party went wrong after a dad-to-be kicked a paint-filled ball - into the neighbor's backyard.
Dad Andrew, 33, was meant to volley the ball hard enough for the colored paint to explode revealing the gender of their child.
But he inadvertently sent it over the fence and into the next-door neighbor's yard.
A video shows mum-to-be Indya Jefferies, 28, standing next to Andrew as the ball is kicked over the fence and can be heard screaming "Nooo".
The ball ended up exploding with pink paint in the neighbor's hedge.
Indya's mother Donna Jefferies filmed the moment in her back yard in Swindon, Wiltshire on May 6.
Donna said: "We all laughed and looked out the window to see pink paint in the neighbor's hedges."
She added that they were unable to retrieve the ball but ended up re-doing the gender reveal with a balloon.
The family is now expecting a little girl but has not decided on a name.
