CLEVELAND - A Browns fan’s reaction to the team’s loss in Houston is going viral on YouTube.
Mike Polk, a local comedian, posted a video showing him yelling at Cleveland Browns Stadium. That video has now been viewed more than 560,000 times.
"Sometimes it's nice to just yell at a building," Polk posted about his video.
He said that as a season ticket holder he expects more. He goes on a rant about the stadium and the team.
“Thank God we built you. You are wasting valuable space on our majestical shoreline. I get 10 miserable games a year including 2 preseason games that I have to pay for and one *&^% Kenny Chesney concert,” Polk said.
“We don’t expect you to be good we just want you to be watchable.”
“All we do is pay you money to put us in a bad mood every week. You are a factory of sadness …. I’ll see you Sunday."
His comments show that even as disappointed as fans are, they still come back to cheer on the Browns each week.
“This is the greatest video of all time. I'm convinced. Mike Polk just enveloped the feelings of Northeast Ohio and Browns fans everywhere today in 70 seconds,” a comment on YouTube stated.
The video comes after the Browns lost 30 to 12 to the Texans and had to play without their two top running backs.
The Browns are 3-6 this season and take on the Jacksonville Jaguars next. The Jaguars also have a 3-6 record this season.
