Hilarious mix-up ends with Kirk Cousins’ drink getting the wrong name

Who is Kirt Cousins?

Well, apparently, Kirk Cousins is Kirt Cousins. The Minnesota Vikings quarterback was out and about grabbing a drink from a juice bar on Wednesday. However, when he actually got his drink, he noticed something was a little off.

He posted a picture of the drink on social media with the name on the side of the beverage spelled as “Kirt.”

At least they got the first three letters correct. That has to count for something, right?

To be fair, maybe the person serving Cousins wasn’t a football fan, or maybe they were and still misspelled his name.

It happens.

I spent the first 20 years of my life thinking Star Trek’s Captain Kirk was Captain Kurt. My deepest apologies, William Shatner.
