Atlanta Falcons fans truly might never hear the end of their team’s collapse in Super Bowl LI.
In case you’ve been living underground somewhere for the past year, the New England Patriots in February pulled off the biggest comeback in Super Bowl history, overcoming a 28-3 deficit to the Falcons at the end of the third quarter to win 34-28 in overtime. Since then, 28-3 jokes have run rampant, with at least one person getting a scoreboard tattoo, someone using a 28-3 sign to motivate runners at the Boston Marathon, the Patriots taking a jab at the Falcons on their Super Bowl rings and New Orleans Saints fans planting a billboard outside the Falcons’ new stadium.
But someone pulled off perhaps the cruelest trick of them all Wednesday night, designing a filter on Snapchat that showed up all over Atlanta.
There’s no word on the culprit, but signs point to it being a Patriots fan, as the filter came out just before the Pats’ season opener Thursday against the Kansas City Chiefs at Gillette Stadium.
