NE Patriots 1MIL Twitter Promotion Goes Horribly Wrong

Murphy’s law, it’s a bitch and apparently a racist too.. The NE Patriots had a simple plan to honor their one millionth follower on Twitter by firing off a custom shoutout tweet.. There was just one little problem, the fan’s twitter handle was “IHATENIGGERSS”

The Patriots were celebrating becoming the first NFL franchise to reach 1 million followers by superimposing the lucky fan’s username on the back of a Patriots’ jersey, but what should have been a euphoric milestone was soon sullied after the Twitterverse carefully hyphenated the nickname.

What were the chances? We warned you not to release Tebow!
