Playing near lightning is bound to get you burned.
Detroit Red Wings fan Zander - or @NyquistSnipe on Twitter - came up with a playful but ill-conceived description of Tampa Bay Lightning supporters Wednesday:
you're 👏🏼 not 👏🏼 a 👏🏼 real 👏🏼 tampa 👏🏼 bay👏🏼 lighting 👏🏼 fan 👏🏼 unless 👏🏼 you've 👏🏼 been 👏🏼 struck 👏🏼 by 👏🏼 actual 👏🏼 lighting

Several hours later, he tried to get validation from the Lightning team account:
@TBLightning do we agree https://t.co/bC2HHSoaj1
— zander. (@NYQUISTSNIPE) July 14, 2016
The Lightning replied Thursday with the ultimate comeback:
@NYQUISTSNIPE you're 👏🏼 not 👏🏼 a 👏🏼 real 👏🏼 tampa 👏🏼 bay 👏🏼 lightning 👏🏼 fan 👏🏼 unless 👏🏼 you 👏🏼 can 👏🏼 spell 👏🏼 lightning 👏🏼 correctly
— Tampa Bay Lightning (@TBLightning) July 14, 2016
Zander actually posted an entire series of tweets about various NHL teams with the same clapping emojis, but only one of them was deserving of a thunderous response.
