Governor Abbott Jinxes Astros With Premature Tweet About Win
The office of Texas Governor Greg Abbott sent out a congratulatory Tweet about the Astros beating the Royals to advance to the ALCS. Only problem is they lost the game.
Shortly after, the Royals rallied to win the game 9-6, forcing a game 5 in Kansas City.
Unlike his Twitter gaffe of comparing the Cowboys defense to the Texas border, Abbott actually responded like a champ in this case. Abbott encouraged his constituents to unfollow the Governor page and follow his personal page. He gets a high-five from me for that one.
I'm not the biggest fan of Abbott, but I am a big fan of someone who can find a laugh in the face of diversity.
