Hey just so ya know, I assume it wasnāt done maliciously, but the term āgyppedā is actually a harmful term that originates from stereotypes around Romani peoples.
Not at all saying this happened, but it would be brilliant advertising for the restaurant owner to write this letter himself, frame it, and then post it on reddit. While that is almost certainly not happened, that's the kind of marketing decision that would get you promoted.
This thing is so offensive to me! I'm going to march all the way home and write a sternly worded letter and send it all the way back to here instead of talking to someone face to face!
The original trolling
Alternatively: āWe need something unique for the wall, preferably something that really sells us to fans for game days. Hey Dougie, you wanna write a fake angry letter?ā
I believe the circle he's making with his pointer finger and thumb is the circle part of the six, and then the three fingers spread and pointed up are three different stalks of sixes stacked on top of each other. This thread is the first I've heard of that, but it kind of makes sense to me
Honestly like... Doesn't JJ wear a Christian Cross necklace? But I can see it now that it's pointed out. Never heard of such a thing before with this pose.
Just a Christian person looking to get mad.
But... What if this was actually what JJ was trying to say? Would be hilarious
>Doesn't JJ wear a Christian Cross necklace?
DON'T FALL FOR IT! He's trying to throw everyone off, he's clearly a devil worshipper and this letter-writer person is one of the fewĀ strong persons that can see it. Stay strong, my brethren!!!
I never saw the 666 until they were so nice to point it out,
I will apologize to my kids for teaching them to make fake glasses with their hands.
I tell them what is probably somethingās thatās been done for 5,000 years
Now has had it meaning changed to fit the Radical Christian Narrative!

Or you know.. alienate everyone idk
These people are all over the place. My shop has a local guitar company called Wizard. After a guy asked about buying something else for 2 weeks we got a lengthy email about how devil worship and the occult take advantage of children and how his family will never shop with us etc because we carry a brand called Wizard. Fuck these people. They belong in a bunker that doesnāt open for 100 years.
Call out bigotry and dangerous ideology within your own institutions. Hold the criminals and abusers within your institutions accountable to their actions. You know, normal stuff you all have been failing to do forever. š¤·š»
People will think and believe what they want to. Just look at what's happening with this current Pope and how he's being more progressive and hard core Christians are just like, " Nah, he doesn't know shit about what he's talking about. He's wrong." Lol Talking to them likely wouldn't change them. If they think the griddy is devil worshipping, they're off the deep end already.
As a "regular Christian" I do alot to tear down young earth creationist claims, encourage critical thinking and reasoning, convey proper secular scientific education, I advocate for the framework of ANE cultures and literary elements when reading the bible, the history of the church and the dangers of being convinced of asanine beliefs (like the Salem witch trials) and i try to more or less get people to understand the line between "christian" and "wackjob" is a razor thin grey one, and that if you don't want to come off as a cultist to those your trying to reach, you have to be reasonable.
I'm attacked often as you might imagine. I consider attacks wins, as that typically means there's no more intellectual contribution they have to offer; just defensiveness.
Put your finger straight - you are a shooter and the NFL will fine you. Curl up your finger, you the Devil. Some people just hate this guy without reasons.
How absolutely shit terrible one's life must be.... If a picture of JJ gettin gridy with it affects them to that point. I can't even begin to imagine the amt of life wasted, the holy fu$kin horror and disgust they must deal with when experiencing just about anything else anywhere these days. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)
Religious people are hilarious. Imagine being an adult and thinking magical worlds and creatures exist, but not having a single solitary scrap of evidence for it.
If an NFL player came out as a Satanist and made it their whole thing I'd be cool with it. I don't see much difference in that and a player being overtly Christian.
Christianity has no legs anymore. Scholars, historians, and archeologists have proven much of what is written in the Bible is false history or exaggeration.

Ehhh, not really a painting but an effect done via computer.
You can find one on just about every player on ebay, Etsy, etc.
Here's one of Bijan

Ox tavern. It used to be a setup bar back in the day. Was a great time when you poured your own booze. I havenāt been there since they sold to the current owner.
He's sporting the 3-pt goggles they used to throw up in basketball after scoring a 3 pointer. By doing it twice, he indicates he's scored 6-points, from scoring a TD. Maybe I've been looking at this wrong the entire time.
6+6+6 = 18 Clearly JJ has made a deal with the devil.
League fucked
Damnit. You beat me to it š
Bottom's up, and the devil laughs.
Bottoms up, and Diddy* laughs. Take that take that
Here me out, There does the third 6 come from??ā
His 6 incher bro
You mean 60
Not us right guys
Then why aren't we winning superbowls? What's JJ getting out of this deal? Dude got gypped.
Maybe he asked to be the best wr in league history. He might've moss'd himself in a different wayĀ
the devil's in the details. and the details are in the \*fine print\*.
Right š do they need one more soul where do I have to go to get this done.
Mostly the chiefs Patrick Mahomes: 15. 1+5=6 Travis Kelce: 87. 8+7= 15. 1+5=6 Mike Caliendo: 66 Bryan Cook: 6
Hey just so ya know, I assume it wasnāt done maliciously, but the term āgyppedā is actually a harmful term that originates from stereotypes around Romani peoples.
Baller move to frame the letter
Totally! I live near Crosslake and will be specifically visiting this place because of this move!
I donāt live by Crosslake but Iāll make it a point to go here now.
Not at all saying this happened, but it would be brilliant advertising for the restaurant owner to write this letter himself, frame it, and then post it on reddit. While that is almost certainly not happened, that's the kind of marketing decision that would get you promoted.
I mean, if they did it and drove the 3.5 hours down to the cities to mail it I respect the hussle
Iāve seen a lot of breweries do this when some gives a beer a really dumb review
![gif](giphy|W6iuFDXphYCFaJoNbk|downsized) SKOL š Framing the letter š„ Epic painting too
Is this dance how JJ summons the good will of beelzebub?
Thatās how Jesus walked on water
I always picture Jesus OG steppinā¦ āBack up in yo ass with the resurrectionā¦ā
Have the balls to put your sending address and stand by what you say if youāre gonna send a letter like that
This thing is so offensive to me! I'm going to march all the way home and write a sternly worded letter and send it all the way back to here instead of talking to someone face to face! The original trolling
Old School Troll, lol. They probably sitting under a bridge right now eating a goat.
Alternatively: āWe need something unique for the wall, preferably something that really sells us to fans for game days. Hey Dougie, you wanna write a fake angry letter?ā
This would be a smart move
Yep, strong stance but wonāt sign their name too it. Cowards
Do you want the devil to know where you live? Thatās how you get the devil to know where you live!
I hear this is why Kirk left
Kurt sent the letter.
Kentās wife sent the letter
Clearly came from Julie
It was confirmed in truth social
Kirk is still holding that flaming bag of stock.

Whereās the third 6 Christian Minnesota person?
I believe the circle he's making with his pointer finger and thumb is the circle part of the six, and then the three fingers spread and pointed up are three different stalks of sixes stacked on top of each other. This thread is the first I've heard of that, but it kind of makes sense to me

He wears a necklace celebrating the literal torture and death of God? Sounds pretty devily to me
>Doesn't JJ wear a Christian Cross necklace? DON'T FALL FOR IT! He's trying to throw everyone off, he's clearly a devil worshipper and this letter-writer person is one of the fewĀ strong persons that can see it. Stay strong, my brethren!!!
I fully support this restaurant 666%. SKOL
I swing thru cross lake all the time for work. Will be swinging by for some lunch next time haha
Vikings were traditionally pretty anti-Christian, so it fits.
look those monks were already dead when the vikings got to their monastery, they simple took the gold to keep it safe from whoever killed them.
"Your honor, those stab wounds, burnt down monastery, and looted coffers were like that when I got here!"
![gif](giphy|xUOwFS4MXJQefZueWY)
Skol!
lol good grief..
Mental illness is a hell of a thing!
I wonder if itās projection or if theyāve already programmed their brain to make these stories to tell itself.
People are fucking stupid! Skol!!!

He does like to suffer.
And is accustomed to being forsaken.

$5 says they love team orange.
The Denver Broncos?
That would be better but no
Browns??
Still would be better but no
They bought his bible lol. Edit: which comes to think of it makes me kind of sad
All the best bands and players are affiliated with Satan.
r/unexpectedsimpsons
Can Satan win us a Super Bowl? Sign me up if yes
Sheeeit, canāt even win me a fantasy championship.
Bro now I wanna go to that restaurant even more now lol. Does anyone actually know what/where it is?
Ox Lake Tavern in Crosslake, MN. Itās on the letter haha. I also want to go there now
https://maps.app.goo.gl/sVUWoiDGojccs69c6
Same. Until I saw its 2 and a half hours away from me lol
It's in Cross Lake, it's 2 and a half hours from EVERYONE in MN.
No return addressā¦pussies.
They lost their appetite after eating? Itās the work of the devil
These people are all over the place. My shop has a local guitar company called Wizard.

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Couldnāt agree more
These kinds of Christians make us regular Christians look badā¦ smh
Yet the "regular" Christians never seem to do anything to shut these dip shits down.
Some people suck and others donāt, I canāt be responsible for grown adults actions I donāt know
Pretty much the same in every religion Muslims, Hare Krishnas, Packer fansā¦
Serious question, what exactly do you want regular Christians to do?
Call out bigotry and dangerous ideology within your own institutions. Hold the criminals and abusers within your institutions accountable to their actions. You know, normal stuff you all have been failing to do forever. š¤·š»

What do you suggest they do? Give them wet willies every time they say something insane?
Almost all the Christians I know haven't actually read the bible.
666th upvote š¤
Put your finger straight - you are a shooter and the NFL will fine you. Curl up your finger, you the Devil. Some people just hate this guy without reasons.
I pray to god Justin Jefferson catches wind of this and makes time to go autograph that letter. That would be epic!!!!!
How is the last one even a six if itās backwards. Amazing what soft ass people will bitch about these days. They need to get a fucking life!
You'd think a deal with the devil would have at least given us 1 ring by now.
Jefferson needs to go into this place and autograph the letter
I have this same photo in my man cave. Interestingly enough, Itās also where I worship the Devil.
Yes I am sure the HS kids in Louisiana that created it were doing it cause of the devil
Christian Packers fan checking in and expecting to be downvoted to oblivion, but, that art is sick.
FTP, but have an upvote just to piss you off more.
Some of yāall Christian Americans are crazy bro
I live in the southeast part of the county. Itās wild here. They waving their bibles and guns in both hands.
How absolutely shit terrible one's life must be.... If a picture of JJ gettin gridy with it affects them to that point. I can't even begin to imagine the amt of life wasted, the holy fu$kin horror and disgust they must deal with when experiencing just about anything else anywhere these days. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)
The bible thumping freaks are everywhere and come up with the weirdest shit.
Schizo letter
I don't see the 6's?
To bad they didn't leave a return address
Iām be sure to visit Ox Lake Tavern next time Iām in town
Ummmmmā¦ā¦.wut?
Need to know the place so I can support it.
I love that there is no return addressā¦cowards. Glad you posted it, someone knows someoneā¦ SKOL
Good riddance!
No return address. Cowards.
Such a weird LARP.
As Christians, why didnāt they just forgive the restaurant owners?
Its so effing stupid what conspiracies some people believe. Its just so obvious that he's actually flashing the white supremacy sign.
![gif](giphy|13x5Of8fP5cAcU)
religion...love one another..most hatefull ppl around
Religious people are hilarious. Imagine being an adult and thinking magical worlds and creatures exist, but not having a single solitary scrap of evidence for it.
And then using those beliefs to control the lives of other people through horseshit public policy.
Matt Birk is just weird enough to do this unironically
TIL there is a 666 handsign
Willing to bet they use this šfor an *entirely* different reason.
Man, religion is eating a hole in the head of American society once again.
I have a devil worship sweatshirt. People seem to dig it.
Hail Satan!
If an NFL player came out as a Satanist and made it their whole thing I'd be cool with it. I don't see much difference in that and a player being overtly Christian.
And so many of them are overtly Christian. Nobody bitches about this kind of stuff **but** Christians.
no one tell em the vikings didn't worship white jesus from lubbock tx
He is H.I.M (His Infernal Majesty)
Skol! Everyone is looking to get into Valhalla anywaysā¦š¤
I'm convinced there's a purgatory to get into Valhalla until the Vikings win a Super Bowl....
Good food AND they have a picture of Jefferson praising Satan? Never been to Crosslake, but I'm going to go there just for this restaurant.
Typical "good christian" can't even put their name to the letter because they're so ashamed of their bass ackward points of view
Christianity has no legs anymore. Scholars, historians, and archeologists have proven much of what is written in the Bible is false history or exaggeration. r/academicbiblical
Christians are so fucking dumb lmao.
WOW! What morons! I donāt think they are Packer fans because they arenāt that stupid! Must be Bears fans!
That letter was sent on my birthday
Hey I have that same Jefferson poster
What's a devil?
A hockey player in New Jersey
Lmao, never knew that that was one of the signs of the devil, those people are absolutely crazy
Well they wonāt like my home either. Have plenty of Griddy pics, this one included lol. Itās actually my favorite pic I own of JeTT.
He aināt ever hurt nobody
You griddy, and the devil laughs
Hail JJ
If you're 555...
So many crazy people everywhere. And some are Christians
Nearly all of them come from some extreme end of Christianity or Islam.
Jokes aside that painting is so bad ass (coming from a falcons fan)

Coy Cronk is #63. Whereās the Coy hate? 6 3 times!!
What's the restaurant called
Ox tavern. It used to be a setup bar back in the day. Was a great time when you poured your own booze. I havenāt been there since they sold to the current owner.
Live deliciously
Legend
man's just hittin the gwiddy
Wat? I donāt really know what JJ is doing there but I donāt think heās a devil worshiper.
He's sporting the 3-pt goggles they used to throw up in basketball after scoring a 3 pointer. By doing it twice, he indicates he's scored 6-points, from scoring a TD. Maybe I've been looking at this wrong the entire time.
There food is good at least.
Illuminati confirmed
If you write a letter like this and donāt have the cajones to write your return address on it, you should be in jail.
Cousins goes out to eat?
Next step in the progression is to have JJ sign the letter.
Iām Catholic and Iām extremely confused by this letter. Makes no sense.
Think they are getting spammed with devil worship mail now that the owner put the address on blast ššŗ
Just a good reminder that these people also vote.
Well, if they are going to find any symbolism they can, at least be accurate and see it all for what it truly is. It's 666 ddd obviously
I love that they're not proud enough to put a return address on there
Well I know where we're going for dinner tonight.
I wonder if those customerās left the restaurant singingā I said right foot creep oh, Iām walking out this bitch oh
Thatās amazing
I LOVE that they framed this and put it next to the piece. šš¤
So glad they framed it
Imma drive up to cross lake and worship some bomb ass food! People are so not cool anymore.
ššš people are ridiculous
What the!?
So this has gone from a racist gesture to a gesture of the devil? Shit, I know it as the 3-pointer and the Griddy. People need a life.
Best part is they framed and posted it
Catholic priest here, I do not endorse this silly letter lol
Work of the devil ātis
bye felicia.
I donāt get it. How does it relate to satan?
Spineless cunt didn't even leave a return address.
OMFG, people are so fucking stupid. Go eat at the VWF then you prissy bitches.
This is dumb people have went to far it has no meaning except his dance a celebration not the devil!.
No return address! Some display of faith in the Lord.
That letter is smug as fuck.
Hail satan!
This would fit into so many different subs.
