When I went with my family to our favorite pizza joint Thursday night I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had ESPN2’s coverage of the Denton (Guyer) versus Allen showdown on one of their televisions. As I was chasing my too-highly-energized-after-8 p.m. toddler around the nearly empty room, we finally found peace when sitting at the bar (father of the year, I know).
We couldn’t have had better timing because in the few minutes we sat nearest the TV, Notre Dame commitment [autotag]Peyton Bowen[/autotag], a five-star safety from Guyer, had an all-time punt return. I reacted with a “holy —-” that I’m glad the toddler didn’t immediately repeat, but based on Twitter my reaction was hardly unique.
Here are some of the best tweets in reaction to Bowen’s incredible punt return.
