Leading up to this year’s Super Bowl, British X-Men co-stars and best pals Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen posted a photo to Twitter showing off their individual picks for winner of Sunday’s big game: Stewart wore a Seattle Seahawks jersey; McKellen wore a Denver Broncos jersey (never mind the soccer ball they’re holding, that’s a whole other story).
In the game last night, the Seahawks took off in the lead and then stayed there the entire game, crushing the Broncos 43-8, and it looks like Stewart was in a very celebratory mood as his team was winning – he posted a photo last night to Twitter of himself in the Seahawks jersey doing a one-armed push-up.
If Stewart’s displayed feat of strength wasn’t enough, there was also his subsequent exchange on Twitter with former Star Trek: The Next Generation co-star Wil Wheaton (who played an Ensign under Stewart’s Captain Picard), who retweeted the photo with the comment “HE IS MY CAPTAIN” to which Stewart replied “you’re damn right.”
The conversation got pretty silly from there – you can see the full exchange here, including comments from the peanut gallery, or you can visit Neatorama to see just Stewart and Wheaton’s back and forth.
