Micah Parson’s joke about joining Patriots has fans losing their minds

Leave it to Micah Parsons to get the entire NFL fan-base buzzing after just one tweet on Wednesday night.

The Dallas Cowboys’ All-Pro linebacker was in attendance at Game 1 of the NBA Eastern Conference Finals matchup between the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat. He showed up at the TD Garden in Boston wearing a Celtics jersey and chatting it up with the players on the court before tip-off.

During the game, Parsons sent out a picture of himself on Twitter, tugging at his Celtics jersey and joking about joining the Patriots.

“Let me guess I want to be a patriot also? Lol,” Parsons tweeted.

The defensive standout was obviously joking, but that didn’t stop the hordes of fans from chiming in on his post. Responses ranged from Patriots fans hoping it was all true to fans of other NFL franchises shooting their shot for Parsons to join their team.

Here’s what people were saying on Twitter:
