Good rule of thumb: If you make a bold sports prediction on social media, and that prediction turns out wrong, there's a good chance you're going to hear about it.
On Monday, one Arizona resident heard straight from the Arizona Diamondbacks themselves.
In January, a gentleman named Kole Sawyer made the following proclamation via Twitter: "If the @Dbacks get Third Place or better in the NL West in the 2017 season, (then) i will buy season tickets for the next 3 MLB seasons."
The D-backs immediately replied to Sawyer's tweet. "We'll hold you to that," they wrote.
Well, fast-forward eight months. The D-backs are in second place in the National League West division and are likely to make their first playoff appearance since 2011.
So, the D-backs, who apparently tucked that tweet in their back pocket, got back to Sawyer on Monday.
Hey @kole_sawyer, excited to have you join the Season Ticket Holder family! Are you thinking lower level for your seats? #OurSeason https://t.co/X9PDf8xgHY
