The Minnesota Timberwolves have had quite the week. They beat the Denver Nuggets in back-to-back games to finish off the seven game series. In doing so, Anthony Edwards had quite the comment directed at Charles Barkely during a postgame interview when Barkely said he wanted restaurants recommendations because he hadn't been to Minnesota in 20 years.
"Bring ya ass."
That has sparked a movement among Timberwolves fans. There have been shirts made and the phrase has gone viral. It's gone so far that Governor Tim Walz has gotten in on the action. He issued a proclamation for Wednesday to be Wolves Back Day and it included a hidden message.

If you look at the first letter of each stanza, it spells out Bring Ya Ass. The Timberwolves are capturing the hearts of a town that hasn't seen a lot of sports success. Edwards may only be 22, but he's becoming a folklore legend.
