Ooooooooooh, Yeeaaaaaahhhhh.
The NFL Draft usually plays host to the most passionate, fervent and diehard fans, and usually those fans dress up in their Sunday best. Or their Sunday singlets, in this case.
With fans taking center stage during the 2021 draft, one Browns fan took it all the way to the top — the top rope, that is, as he donned his best "Macho Man" Randy Savage gear.

Savage, who tragically died in 2011, was one of pro wrestling's greatest grapplers and characters, with a career spanning four decades. Best known for his gravelly voice and loud, ostentatious ring gear, Savage's persona was captured fairly well by this Browns fan, and the crowd loved every second of it.

Savage, real name Randy Poffo, was a farmhand for MLB's St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds in the '70s, so it's unclear if he was a Browns fan.
They say the cream rises to the top , and the Browns are hoping that second-round pick Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah — the player chosen during the fan's turn on stage — helps them do just that in the 2021 season.
Fake Macho Man added plenty of pomp and circumstance to Friday night's proceedings, dropping a big elbow on the event and bringing the venue — and Twitter — to life.
I am still trying to process the fake Macho Man.

In 1986, I saw Randy Savage in the Pittsburgh airport. He was wearing a tank top, faded jeans, a weightlifting belt, and no shoes or socks.

Venturing down the Macho Man rabbit hole . . . "Randall Mario Poffo (November 15, 1952 – May 20, 2011), better known by his ring name Randy Savage, was an American professional wrestler, commentator, actor, rapper, and professional baseball player."
