Yankees fans troll Jose Altuve with NSFW birthday chant (Video)

It’s Jose Altuve’s birthday and New York Yankees fans decided to send him the complete opposite of well wishes. 

It’s Jose Altuve’s birthday and he’s enjoying his special day trying to help the Houston Astros take down the New York Yankees in the Bronx. As you might have been able to guess, the Yankees fans on hand have been nothing short of respectful of Altuve as he gets ready to blow out 31 candles.

Well, not exactly. In the middle of the action, cameras caught the New York faithful at the stadium wishing Altuve a happy birthday in very NSFW fashion. This is something Houston haters out there will surely enjoy.

New York Yankees fans really let Jose Altuve have it for his birthday

That’s probably not what Altuve’s family was hoping he’d hear on his big day, but this is the Bronx we’re talking about after all, folks. Heading into their series with New York, the Astros and manager Dusty Baker were fully aware that the local fans would be ready to take their savaging to the next level.

The 2017 sign-stealing scandal will never be forgotten, with the Astros being among the biggest villains in all of sports once the reports surfaced of them cheating. People in New York feel like they were cheated of a potential World Series. Also, Altuve was named AL MVP that season over Aaron Judge, which still infuriates so many across New York City.

Altuve’s teammates must have something special planned for him on Thursday night to honor him for his birthday. Until then, the superstar is simply going to have to put up with what continues to fly in from the stands. Some more expletives are sure to fly in his direction.
