Chad Ochocinco Becomes Twitter Pals With Speaker of the House John Boehner After State of the Union

Chad Ochocinco has made friends with a very important person in a very unconventional way.

The Patriots wide receiver attempted to begin a Twitter conversation with Speaker of the House John Boehner during the State of the Union address. Ochocinco tweeted Boehner while watching the speech, asking if the Speaker of the House was upset.

Ochocinco probably wasn’t anticipating a response, but Boehner was touched by the Patriots receiver’s message, and decided to tweet Ochocinco back, wishing him well in the Super Bowl.

Here’s the exchange as it happened.
