New York Jets center Nick Mangold crushes defensive linemen during the NFL season and now, apparently, he also crushes the dreams of NFL fans as well during the offseason.
A couple days ago, a fan by the name of Jackie Nolan thought she had taken a photo with the Pro Bowl center, posing next to a smiling bearded man who holds a slight resemblance to Mangold. It seemed like the ultimate fan moment and one that had Nolan showing off her pearly whites:
But then Nolan had that moment rudely awakened when she tweeted the photo and tagged Mangold in it. Mangold, who can be quite the comedian on Twitter, wasn't joking when he responded back, putting a pancake block to what she thought was her recent celebrity sighting.
According to her Twitter page, shortly before she posted the photo Nolan followed Mangold on Twitter. Have to feel bad for Nolan in this instance as some man clearly sold her a story of false identity. But there's always hope — perhaps she'll run into Manti Teo's girlfriend next week at the same bar.
