New York (1010 WINS) - You wouldn't necessarily expect a stadium full of football fans to sing along to the "Golden Girls'" theme song "Thank You For Being A Friend" - let alone for it to be played during a game - but that's what happened Sunday in a tribute to Betty White, who died on Friday at the age of 99.

"The @BuffaloBills pouring one our for #BettyWhite," spectator Matt Carlucci tweeted, along with video of the tribute from Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, where the Bills beat the Atlanta Falcons, 29-15.

And judging by the singalong from attendees, many were fans of White's sweet-but-naïve Minnesotan character Rose Nylund.

"This one's for you Betty!" captioned another sports fan who posted the tribute to Twitter.
