Devin Booker, a star player for the Phoenix Suns, sent out a controversial tweet just hours before Super Bowl 2023
The tweet caused a lot of trouble on social media.
Devin Booker miffed with all the noise in Arizona during Super Bowl 2023 as tweet goes viral
This is what the tweet said: “Can all y’all get out my city. I like it better quiet,” and many have found this as an attack on the NFL and the huge number of fans who show up for the biggest sporting event of the year.
Super Bowl 2023 is being held in Arizona and Devin Booker does not like it
The Arizona Cardinals play at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, which is where the 2023 Super Bowl will be held. The game will be between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, and NFL fans can feel the excitement. But, based on his tweet, it looks like Devin Booker is not one of those fans.

Some people took the tweet seriously and criticised the NBA star for not supporting the NFL, but others think he was just messing around and that a little bit of ribbing between sports doesn’t hurt anything. Even LeBron James, who is often seen at NFL games and is known to be a fan of the sport, has said things about football in the past.
Devin Booker is a NFL fan
On the other hand, Devin Booker has been seen at NFL games, so it’s possible that he likes the sport. It’s also possible that he was just making a joke about how crazy a city can be on the weekend of the Super Bowl. No matter what he meant, the tweet has gotten a lot of attention on social media, with some fans demanding an apology and others just laughing it off.

After eight years, the biggest sporting event of the year will be back in Arizona for Super Bowl 2023. The last time the Super Bowl was in the state was in 2015, so fans are excited to see it return. The State Farm Stadium, which can hold more than 63,000 people, is expected to be full of fans from all over the country who are there to cheer on their favourite teams and enjoy everything that Glendale has to offer.
Devin Booker’s tweet has caused a bit of a stir on social media, but it looks like the NBA star was just messing around and not really attacking the NFL. No matter what he was trying to do, the tweet has gotten people talking and added more excitement to an already highly anticipated Super Bowl 2023.
