Larry Fitzgerald loves Cardinals fans. He also loves to have fun with Cardinals fans. And before Sunday's game at the Washington Redskins, Fitz decided to mess with a Cards fan on Twitter.
A Cardinals fan who lives just a couple hours away from the Redskins' home stadium enlisted Fitzgerald to help him convince his girlfriend to come cheer on the Cards on the road.
I need @LarryFitzgerald to convince my GF to drive with me to the game today #BeRedSeeRed

Fitzgerald proceeded to put the fan in a highly awkward position with his reply.
Dear JPs girlfriend,
Come with him to the game and he will propose for Christmas!!
Love,
Fitz https://t.co/60NAzKoWxh— Larry Fitzgerald (@LarryFitzgerald) December 17, 2017
It's unclear whether the fan had any intention of proposing at the game. (Probably not.) But his reply to Fitz's tweet was about what you'd expect.
Not exactly the response I was expecting from him haha

During the game itself, which the Cardinals lost 20-15, Fitzgerald took time to meet a young fan. Never change, Larry.
