Micah Parsons spent an entire season fooling opposing offenses, but he won’t have nearly as much success deceiving fans into thinking he’s a hockey fan.

Rather than wait for players from each team to meet at center ice – as is customary for a puck drop – Parsons casually strolled to center ice and discarded the puck as if it were a cigarette butt. The move quickly established Parsons as a novice hockey fan, at best.
This type of fail is regularly associated with the Cowboys’ playoff hopes, but not normally connected to the supremely talented Parsons.
A confused Parsons laughed off his blunder and eventually opted for a redo, dropping the puck between two players as the crowd roared in approval.

The home team Hershey Bears, who hosted Parsons, wasted little time taking a lighthearted jab at Dallas’ top defender. Along with video from the scene of the crime and a thank you, the Bears tweeted: "We are so sorry for not explaining how a puck drop works. That one is on us. Our bad."
As Micah can attest, it’s not always cool when you’re on the ice.
