Sixers’ ‘Final’ Score Goes Viral for All the Wrong Reasons
The Philadelphia 76ers are under fire—not just for their 3-13 start to the season, but also for a comical error in their postgame graphics. After a demoralizing 26-point loss to the Clippers, the Sixers shared a retro-styled graphic on social media. Unfortunately, poor kerning in the word “FINAL” made it appear as “ANAL,” sparking a wave of jokes across social media.
Fans Roast the Font Choice
Social media erupted with reactions:
- “Shoulda went with Times New Roman,” quipped RapTV’s Jake McGrady.
- Lakers insider Anthony F. Irwin added, “Might want to find a different font for ‘FINAL’ next time.”
- Carl Anka of The Athletic simply stated, “Kerning is important.”
Bleacher Report’s Molly Morrison tweeted, “Font choices matter,” while one fan replied, “They knew exactly what they were doing—it’s shameless.”
On-Court Struggles Mirror Social Media Mishap
The off-court embarrassment echoed the Sixers’ rough night on the hardwood. Missing stars Joel Embiid and Paul George, Philadelphia shot just 39.5% from the field in a blowout loss.
- Rookie Jared McCain led the Sixers with 18 points and 4 assists.
- Tyrese Maxey added 17 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists.
Meanwhile, the Clippers’ James Harden tormented his former team, dropping 23 points and 8 assists.
What’s Next for the Sixers?
The 3-13 76ers will look to bounce back when they host the Houston Rockets, but fans are already bracing for another tough night—and maybe another social media blunder.
