Wife a big hit on TikTok after making drinking game of husband’s Dallas Cowboys fandom

Spinning around in NFL fandom doesn’t always paint a pretty picture, especially if you’re a die-hard, over-the-top passionate fan of one specific team. TVs may fall victim, crying faces will likely be highlighted by stadium cameras, moods will probably be affected dramatically for days to come after a loss — all of which showcase the levels of intense team dedication.

One wife of a very heated Dallas Cowboys fan proved this by creating a fun (and possibly liver-torturing) drinking game of her husband’s (erm … predictable) reactions to watching the team’s controversial one-point win over the Detroit Lions on Dec. 30.

Why did it take me so long to do this?” Makenzie Waters captioned over the video of her husband doing nearly every single action on her handmade bingo card — a very specific bingo card that included squares with:

  • “Crosses arms”

  • “Quiet clap”

  • “Walks down the hall”

  • “First down gesture”

  • “Aggressively pets dog”

By the end of the 1:44 minute video, Waters gets a bingo and takes a swig of her beer — though it should be noted that it looks like she almost had a bingo blackout on the card, which would be fitting considering Dallas took the game 20-19.

Fans were loving the commitment of both parties, and complimented how closely Waters pays attention to the reactions of her “dem boyz” loving partner.

The fact you know his every move,” one person wrote in the comment section.

“Girl, keep going! You almost got a blackout,” another noticed.

“You should laminate the paper and use a white board marker for every match,” someone said.

“Being a Cowboys fan is an emotional roller coaster,” one person observed.

Waters had a whole new bingo card filled out for the recent Cowboys’ dismantling 38-10 win over the Washington Commanders on Jan. 7, including squares that mentioned their baby, Cooper, who was joining in the festivities.

And yes, “scares baby” and “crawls” were two of the boxes.

Cowboys nabbed the No. 2 seed in the National Football Conference following Sunday’s win and will host the Green Bay Packers on Jan. 14 in the Wild Card round.
