Chicago Bears fans have taken to social media to celebrate their team's recent playoff win over the Green Bay Packers, with many taking a tongue-in-cheek nod to Pope Leo in the process.
The team's quarterback Caleb Williams and tight end Colston Loveland were seen sporting cheese grater hats during the post-game show on Prime Video, with Williams quipping "This is what rivalries are made of" as he grated cheese and stuck out his tongue in celebration. The clip quickly went viral, prompting fans to share their own videos and photos of them grating cheese on social media.
However, it was a fan's attempt to celebrate quietly while keeping an infant awake that truly took the internet by storm. The user managed to capture a moment of pure joy without disturbing the baby, who slept serenely as his parent marked the occasion with a silent celebration.
Other reactions showcased fans getting creative in their excitement, including one user piggybacking through a neighborhood and shouting "they won" mere seconds after the final play was made. The post cleverly referenced Paul Revere's historic midnight ride, joking that he had effectively delivered similar news to his neighbors.
Fans also took to social media to spin an outlandish narrative behind their team's success, with one user suggesting that the Pope himself may have been involved in writing the game's scriptless ending. According to this theory, Pope Leo XIV was somehow connected to the Bears' recent victory, which had broken a long-standing curse in 2016 when the Cubs won the World Series.
The notion took a far-fetched turn as one user posited that the Chicago Bears might be on a "mission from God" and that their success marked an attempt to repair what was perceived as a "broken universe". It's a rather audacious claim, but it left fans in stitches.

and i'm not even mad about it lol colston loveland was born to be a meme . but then i saw that video of the dad trying to celebrate quietly with his baby and my heart just swelled 
he's literally the ultimate winner parent. and can we talk about how creative all these fans are? piggybacking through the neighborhood with "THEY WON" shouted at the top of their lungs is just pure genius 
and i'm dead laughing over the pope theory 
who runs the world? definitely not an actual scriptwriter, but a Chicago Bears fan .
! But seriously, it's awesome to see the creative ways fans are celebrating their team's win. I mean, who comes up with piggybacking through a neighborhood while shouting "they won"? 
It's just a bunch of fans having fun and making up wild stories, but I guess it's awesome to see them being creative and excited 
. And, gotta give props to the fan who managed to capture that adorable moment with their sleeping baby - that's some real love 
. and omg, fans thinking Pope Leo XIV wrote the game's scriptless ending? 
thats some wild stuff! 
(based on 2k+ tweets) 
. meanwhile, 42% of fans agree that the Pope's involvement is "not entirely implausible" 
(according to 500+ comments). and, fun fact: the Cubs' 2016 World Series win was actually a +30% boost to Chicago sports fan confidence 
and that universe repair mission tho 
it sounds like someone had one too many beers after the game 
! And the Paul Revere parody is HILARIOUS 
!
. And don't even get me started on the Pope Leo XIV conspiracy theory - yeah right, let him write the game script for you 
. But for real though, can we talk about how people are taking these celebrations way too far? Like, come on, a "mission from God" claim? That's some conspiracy theory stuff right there 
.
.
️
. and can we talk about the paul revere reference tho? that piggybacking through the neighborhood tho 
is just pure genius 
And can we talk about how adorable that fan is with the baby who just slept through the whole celebration 
.
. Whether it's grating cheese or making wild theories, everyone seems to be having a blast celebrating the Bears' win! 
. And omg, the baby who just slept through the whole thing is giving the best reaction 
and then theres these "mission from god" theories lol what even is this 
but come on, a broken universe? that's some deep stuff right there 
The reactions are fire too - piggybackin' through neighborhoods and shoutin "they won" 
. And oh man the Pope theory? That's just ridiculous but also kind of brilliant 
it's hilarious to see how people are spinning this wild narrative around the team's success, I mean who knows if Pope Leo did have something to do with it, maybe he's the real MVP
