Cardinals Delete Viral Video Trolling Russell Wilson After Nearly 5 Million Views
The Cardinals went viral on Saturday, when they posted a video trolling Russell Wilson after Arizona beat the Broncos Friday night. The video, which included parts of a different viral video where a woman on a plane screamed “that guy is not real” at another passenger, showed Wilson stretching on a plane.
Wilson, of course, was criticized for doing high knees on a four hour plane ride last season when the Broncos flew to London. The Cardinals’ video successfully combined multiple viral moments into one, very clever piece of media, garnering close to 5 million views.
Except, someone didn’t approve of this post, as the Cardinals deleted the video just a few hours after they posted it.
The video received a small batch of criticism by those who don’t feel preseason games are important, but not enough to say that there was a significant amount of backlash. Therefore, the decision to delete the video probably came from someone higher than a social media manager.
These two teams don’t play in the regular season this year, so it’s safe to say that this video probably won’t reappear anytime soon.
