Eagles Super Bowl cups mistakingly sent to Boston-area Dunkin' Donuts
New England Patriots fans weren't too pleased after receiving cups reminding them of the team's Super Bowl LII loss to the Philadelphia Eagles at a Boston-area Dunkin' Donuts.
"I thought, 'is this some kind of a joke?' This is Patriots Nation," Patti Panzer, who was served iced tea in an Eagles "World Champions" cup, told Jim Hand of The Sun Chronicle.
Though it looked like a troll job, the cups were actually sent because of a shipping mistake. The Eagles cups have since been removed from the stores, and the company issued a statement apologizing for the mix-up.
"We appreciate our loyal customers for bringing this to our attention, and we are taking steps to ensure all of our local stores are stocked with the correct cups," the statement reads. "Go Pats."
