There Were Two High-Profile Rickrolls This Weekend
If you thought the act of Rickrolling was dead, this past weekend proved you wrong!
There were two high-profile Rickrolls. First, there was this epic Rickroll by the San Diego Padres, who were hosting the Boston Red Sox. A number of Red Sox fans were in attendance at Petco Park, when “Padres Karaoke” cued up Neil Diamond‘s “Sweet Caroline,” a staple at Fenway Park during Red Sox home games. Just when they were getting to the chorus, frankly, magic happened.
SO GOOD, SO GOOD, SO GOOD! 🤣 https://t.co/RatAEIaWlL

The other Rickroll happened during the Foo Fighters‘ headlining set at the Reading Festival where Dave Grohl teased performing a Nirvana song, and then brought out the actual Rick Astley to front the band for a hard rock version of “Never Gonna Give You Up.” Videos of the performance can be viewed below.
