Calgary mayor Naheed Nenshi turned a simple Tweet in support of the Stamps into an expert-level troll of the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
It started with this…
Way to go Stamps! Time for another Grey Cup after an incredible season! #GoStamps

But quickly escalated to this…
She’s so right. This isn’t about politics, it’s about football! And hating the Riders. https://t.co/RijIOgoc67

Which would have been fine. But then Nenshi doubled down with this beauty…
Not that I hate the Riders. I am after all the Mayor of the largest Saskatchewan city. https://t.co/iKXJUK5vXW

For those not familiar of the migration patterns of Western Canada, there are a lot of people from Saskatchewan who live and work in Calgary.
We look forward to the response from noted Rider fan @PremierBradWall.
UPDATE: Or Nenshi could just keep going, that’s cool too.
And 4 Grey Cup appearances in six years. Hmm.

UPDATE 2:
Premier Brad Wall gets the last word because, well, sometimes chirping comes back to bite you in the ass…
Don’t feel bad….it’s not like your trash talking jinxed them or anything. #beenthere #banjovideo #stillwonthecupthatyearthough https://t.co/uSNRFIe8UL
