It was all pretty cool, and at least so far, we didn’t even go and Ken Bone the whole thing up by elevating Nacho Man, as he will forever be known henceforth, into some modern-day folk hero.
But Cubs starting pitcher and chief lieutenant in the No Fun Police Jon Lester was not amused by the tomfoolery.
“Great effort. But I don’t understand the other stuff,” Lester told the Sun-Times. “A guy fell into him and got nacho cheese on his arm and now he’s taking pictures and signing autographs. It shows you where our society’s at right now with all that stuff.”
Yes, the culture has dutifully given Gudermuth his 15 minutes, but have we really memed him, ironically or not, to the point of grotesque, ouroboros-like megastardom? That, or maybe Jon Lester is kinda cranky. Cheer up, dude, your magic number is one!
