Oscar-winning actor Jack Nicholson is one of the most well-known Los Angeles Lakers fans, and he was once again courtside for Saturday night’s Game 3 of the Western Conference finals.
While the Lakers were down 2-0 to the Denver Nuggets ahead of Saturday’s game, Nicholson still showed up courtside to give his beloved team the support they undoubtedly needed from the home crowd.
When the ESPN camera found Nicholson at the game, he threw up a thumbs up while the lower third underneath him just said “Jack.”
Nicholson’s hair was a bit all over the place during the on-camera appearance, but it didn’t stop him from giving the crowd a chipper thumbs up to cheer on the Lakers.
As you can imagine, the priceless image of Nicholson instantly became a meme you’re likely to see fill your Twitter feed for days to come.

The memes were as wonderful as you'd expect.
