Crying Jordan meme is live at the Panthers game – but not crying

By Kyle Thele

The greatest basketball player in NBA history is in attendance at the Carolina Panthers NFC Championship game against the Arizona Cardinals. Bulls legend and current Charlotte Hornets owner, Michael Jordan, watched the game from a sky box.

On the field, Panthers quarterback Cam Newton was doing his best Jordan impression. The Panthers have jumped out to a huge 27-7 lead in the third quarter against the Cardinals.

It appears, the Crying Jordan meme is soon headed for the Cardinals locker room.
