A cloud looking mightily close to the New England Patriots Logo has fans asking, “What does it all mean?”
Is this a sign from the heavens that Belichick’s personal prayers have been answered? According to NBC 10 based out of Rhode Island earlier yesterday (Oct. 29, 2015) one of their viewers sent in a picture of a cloud that looks a lot like the New England Patriots logo. Have a look at that photo below.

This wasn’t the first sighting by a native of Massachusets as an earlier photo on twitter shows the exact same cloud taken at another angle.

Many fans are chalking this up as a good omen as the Patriots handily layed the smack down on the Miami Dolphins with a 36-7 win that saw Brady throw 365 yards and four touchdowns.
Colloquially, the fans are calling the cloud the flying elvis, a clear nod to the unofficial name Pats fans gave the logo back in 1993 when a new logo was unveiled. “A gray face minuteman wearing a red, white and blue hat that begins as a tricorner and transitions into a flowing banner-like design.”
We’re pretty sure this is all just a naturally occurring phenomenon and with a record that’s improved to 7-0, its not like the Patriots need any luck in the first place.
Let’s see if some of that good luck from up above remains as the Patriots prepare to face-off against the Washington Red Skins next Sunday at Foxbourough. But with more than a few days to prepare, we have a feeling clouds will have nothing to do with how well they play.
