It’s gotten extremely trendy to make jokes at the Houston Astros’ expense, so much so that trolling made its way to the XFL over the weekend.
During a Renegades game against the Houston Roughnecks, Dallas had some staff members thumping on rubber trash cans, whether it was during a rendition of We Will Rock You or at other points in the game. That’s pretty funny, mostly because the only connection here is that the Roughnecks are a Houston-based team.
Plus, the Roughnecks won the game, so it wasn’t exactly the most effective tool.
Here’s a video and photo of the trolling:
The Houston Roughnecks are in town, so naturally, the @XFLRenegades staff is beating on trash cans in honor of the Astros. #XFL #MLB pic.twitter.com/zOarAs7Acw

Shots fired at the @astros. Renegades personnel on the field have been banging on trash cans when Houston is on offense. #TexasThrowdown pic.twitter.com/tjtyWYbwM9
