The New York Giants’ website accidentally displayed an image indicating that they had won the Super Bowl today. It’s possible that this will come true, but considering that the game doesn’t even kickoff for about 25 hours, the celebration might be a bit premature.
Ralph Vacchiano of the New York Daily News was able to get a screen cap and tweet it (hat tip: ProFootballTalk):
Ooops! The Giants’ website prematurely (and briefly) declared the Giants Super Bowl champions … #NYG … twitter.com/TheBlueScreen/ā¦

Of course Twitter is having a good time with the flub:

Nooo. This feels like bad luck š RT@ProFootballTalk: http://t.co/GEknf4tu declares Giants Super Bowl champions http://t.co/zq8uWGDA
Hope the Pats see this before the game. RTI’m guessing the Pats have something similar ready to go.
