'Your concern is concerning' - Burnley co-owner JJ Watt goes on social media ramble after follower mistakes Clarets logo on his hat for religious emblem

Championship

Bristol City

Burnley

After appearing on ESPN's daytime show The Pat McAfee show, Watt was sent a screenshot by a follower questioning him for wearing a Burnley hat on-air. The follower accused him of wearing a hat with the logo of 'The all-seeing eye' - a religious emblem dated back to Egyptian mythology, among other representations. Watt quoted the follower's message on X, bringing the hammer down on them for the accusation while listing out a set of facts about the English club.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The Wisconsin native represented his club and stood up for them after a follower questioned him about the Clarets logo.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">It’s a Burnley logo mate. Not an eye in sight. Established 1882. We worship at the church of Turf Moor. Jimmy McIlroy is our savior. Our cloaks are Claret &amp; Blue. Bene &amp; Hot is our elixir. We won the league at Ewood. Your concern is concerning. <a href="https://t.co/d3CatYg5Hv">https://t.co/d3CatYg5Hv</a>— JJ Watt (@JJWatt) <a href="https://twitter.com/JJWatt/status/1750545647634411722?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 25, 2024</a></blockquote>
