Former New York Jets Super Bowl winning quarterback Joe Namath was at MetLife Stadium ahead of Super Bowl XLVIII rocking a huge fur coat. PETA wasn’t thrilled and responded on Twitter.

Here's the REST of your fur coat.

They’re not done, they want Namath’s coat. If they get it, they plan on giving the coat a proper burial.
“All you have to do is box it up and call FedEx. It’s easier than a coin toss!” writes PETA Senior Vice President Lisa Lange. “[W]e can do the same thing with yours that we do with other fur coats donated by people who’ve turned their backs on fur—as you said you had a few decades back—and cut it up to make coats for refugee children. Please, Joe, don’t be a turncoat.”
