It appears as if the Denver Nuggets have just found the easiest way to get their fans attention at a moment’s notice. All they had to do was put Tom Brady’s mug up on their giant jumbotron while their opponents shoot free throws and they got about 18,000 people to collectively drop what they were doing to unleash some boos.
Well played @nuggets well played…

It’s a genius strategy, really. It doesn’t have to be Tom Brady, either. Although, he is a perfect target. There are not many people outside of New England that wouldn’t gladly take time out of their night to boo Brady. Denver is obviously a place where they take great joy in that.
But take any city and put a hated athlete on up on the big board and see what happens. It’s such a simple, yet brilliant way to get the fans all on the same page. And it worked! The Spurs clanked those free throws and everybody got to boo Brady. Win-win.
Only the @nuggets would show pictures of @Patriots Tom Brady during opposing teams free throws to get a louder reaction #Patriots #GoSpursGo pic.twitter.com/fXhw2eYiQY

Turns out this isn’t the first time they’ve done this…
Not sure how we’re just finding out about this, but it’s pure genius.
