Joe Burrow was asked ahead of the Cincinnati Bengals ‘ Super Bowl 56 appearance who would play him in a movie.
Burrow’s response? According to ESPN’s Ben Baby , some have told him that he looks like “Home Alone” star Macaulay Culkin .
More than a year and a half later, NFL fans are getting a chance to see the uncanny resemblance thanks to Culkin’s Halloween costume.
Culkin decided to dress up as Burrow for Halloween. The 44-year-old posted photos of his outfit to Instagram and tagged the Bengals quarterback in the caption section.
The Bengals were fans of Culkin’s post, excitedly commenting, “WHO DEY!!!” on it. Culkin himself later beckoned Burrow to join in the fun with a comment of his own.
“Ball’s in your court, Joey B,” Culkin wrote in his post.
Will Burrow try to dress as Culkin for Halloween? It won’t be as easy to pull off as Culkin’s Burrow costume, as there are many iterations of Culkin for which Burrow could go.
