And you knew school was going to be closed.

@ThatEricAlper Tuesday found me, standing on the highway

Dropkick Murphys just had an epic moment at their show:
They made a friendly wager with a fan in a MAGA shirt—“Let’s see where it’s made.”

Made in Nicaragua.
They swapped it with a Made in America Dropkick Murphys tee.
Legendary.
