Twitter Users Mourn the Loss of the Great Capt. Andrew Luck
By Bobby Burack
Sad football news just keeps on hitting us. Not only is Andrew Luck stepping away from the game at the all too young age of 29, but so is the parody Twitter account known as “Capt. Andrew Luck.”
As you can see below, to no surprise, this has ruined the day for many kind Twitter users:
Oh no.... a sobering reality just hit me...

@CaptAndrewLuck will be missed. He will forever be known as the greatest troll account in Twitter history. Never uttered an ill word and did everything with grace and class. This account was so good than fans of others loved the content. He will be missed. ???? https://t.co/dtedQkSV9Q

It was always disappointing that the real Luck never participated on Twitter.com. Though, most flip phones don’t have the app. Yet the captain really helped ease that disappointment by giving us some heartwarming, well-written tweets.
Perhaps leaving Twitter early like Capt. Luck is doing is the most millennial thing ever, and maybe Twitter users should get a pass to boo him thinking he owes them his time and effort. But either way, we much appreciate the quality monologues he did give us.
