The Boomer and Gio crew set aside some time to talk about the legendary social media post from the Winnipeg Jets, calling back to one of most talked-about calls in the history of WFAN.
With the Jets in town to take on the Devils on Thursday night, the team account posted, while tagging the New York Jets, “Hey Jets, since we’re in town do you want to get together on Friday for dinner? cause we have the same name. It could be like the Giants and San Francisco Giants picnic in Totowa.”
This was of course a reference to Dan in Warwick asking Mike Francesa if the two Giants teams, or two teams of the same name, ever got together for dinner in recognition of their shared names.
Francesa was famously befuddled, and the Boomer and Gio crew had a good time reacting to Winnipeg honoring the hilarious moment.
The New York Jets even got involved in response.
