Recapping #OperationClownFace And My Day At Gillette
Ok so yesterday was a huge day for myself and Barstool with #OperationClownFace. I did a ton of media, gave out a ton of towels, watched the Pats raise banner #5 and then promptly get demolished. Here were the highlights and lowlights in my opinion of the entire day.
Highlights
Dropping a F bomb in Felger’s face on live TV
Ok I’m gonna admit I didn’t mean to do this and was kind of embarrassed by it. I honestly didn’t mean to say I’d stuff Felger in a fucking bodybag on live TV. BUT to my defense I had been drinking at our tailgate for 3 hours, took some random dude’s adderall in the parking lot, and had smoked a little weed before I did this appearance at 7pm. That’s what happens when you mix it up with the common folk in the parking lot and aren’t on set all day. Again I don’t condone swearing when you are invited on TV, but like I said in real time I apologize for nothing. Shout out to Ninkovich and Koppen’s face when I did it.
Dropping A Cunt Bomb on Kirk And Callahan
This one was a little different than the F Bomb incident. Both Minihane and Callahan said I went soft since I moved to New York. That I wasn’t the same guy who tried to bring back the C word. That I was too PC now. So naturally I dropped a cunt bomb right in their faces. No brainer. Don’t push the tiger back into a corner and expect not to get clawed to death.
Rogers Goodell’s Only Appearance on the Field
I still have no idea if NBC showed Goodell at the game during the game. I have no idea if he even stayed. MMQB reported that Goodell was so scared by #OperationClownFace that he was going to leave the field before most Pats fans arrived. However there was still one moment about 45 minutes before kickoff where Pats fans spotted him and it was glorious. The booing was so loud that NBC thought the Chiefs walked onto the field. Nope it was just that rat fuck Goodell. And there was turquoise everywhere around him. Shirts, towels etc. There was no way he could not see it, hear it, feel it. I almost cried tears of joy.
The First And Only Roger….Roger…Roger….Chant
Ok handing out the towels was a shitshow. We gave out 10K towels at Rodman Ford from roughly 4-6pm. In hindsight we could have given out another 15-20K before the game. It seemed like everybody in the stadium was looking for one and once we ran out nobody knew how to get them including us. We had no clue where the volunteers were or how it was going. With the amount of people looking for towels and literally trying to buy them from people I was very worried that only like 20% of the fans had them. And then the first and only Roger….Roger…Roger….Roger…..chant broke out of the night. And it was glorious. Towels appeared from nowhere. The 70% number I wanted was easily achieved. And then midway through the chant they did a moment of silence for the Houston flood victims. Total mood killer if we’re being honest. Like yeah it sucks that Houston got floods, but we’re in the middle of a Roger….Roger….Roger….chant here. I figured this would be the first of many Roger chants throughout the night but the fact we got killed totally put a damper on it. Nobody feels like doing a Roger chant when we are getting our doors blown off.
Media On Top Of Media On Top Of Media
I did 9,000 interviews yesterday. Everybody and their grandmother covered it. Here is a small taste
The Low Lights
The Banner Ceremony Sucked
I’m not sure what was going on with the banner ceremony, but it absolutely sucked. Other than the image of the 5 Lombardi Trophies and Edelman making an appearance it was awful. RKK didn’t even speak. They unfurled the banner before anybody even knew what happened. It felt like it lasted 5 minutes. And worst of all they brought in Mark Wahlberg to be the MC. Yeah the guy who left the Superbowl early was talking about what a great comeback it was vs. the Falcons. So great he skipped out early. He probably left early last night too. That was a bad omen. Fake fans shouldn’t be the MC of nights like last night.
Pats Got Smashed
Would I ordinarily care that the Pats got crushed in Game 1 of the season? Not really. I mean we’ve lost openers before and came back to win the Superbowl. We’ve been blown out by the Chiefs before and come back to win the superbowl. But like I said before it totally put the kibosh on #OperationClownFace Once the game started and it was obvious this wasn’t going to be easy Goodell became an after thought. And for that I cried. And now that I got that out of my system We are On To New Orleans.
