Georgia football played an April Foo’s Day joke by posting a photo of a broken National Championship trophy.
As is a yearly tradition, April Fool’s Day creates for chaos in the sports world. From David Njoku “demanding a trade” off the Cleveland Browns to Los Angeles Lakers LeBron James announcing he was done for the season to Julian Edelman “announcing” he was signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, it was just pure hijinks on Friday.
The Georgia Football social media team decided to join in on the fun and that was by showing a picture of a “broken” National Championship trophy to scare Bulldogs fans across the world.

Georgia football social media department scares Bulldogs fans with April Fool’s Day joke
Bulldogs fans had to be scared seeing the “broken” trophy, considering they just won the National Championship for the first time since 1980, and they did so against the defending champion Alabama Crimson Tide.
In the SEC Championship Game, the Bulldogs, who were undefeated at the time, lost 42-21 to the Crimson Tide. But Georgia got their revenge in the biggest game of the year. Down 9-6 at halftime to Alabama, Georgia bounced back in the second half with 27 points, 20 of them scored in the fourth quarter, to win 33-18.
April Fool’s Day, as said earlier, is just chaos, especially in the sports world.
