An estimated crowd of 1 million people took to the streets of Seattle, Washington, on Wednesday, February 11, to celebrate the Seahawks’ Super Bowl victory over the New England Patriots, and Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp used the occasion to take a jab at the team they defeated.
“How ’bout them apples?” Kupp, 32, said into the microphone at the team’s trophy celebration.
The line is a reference to the 1997 movie Good Will Hunting, which was set in Boston and written by Patriots fans Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.
“Thank you, guys, for embracing a kid, a couple of kids from Eastern Washington, from Yakima and Tri-Cities,” Kupp continued. “I appreciate you all.”

The Seahawks parade wasn’t the only opportunity Kupp has had to troll the Patriots since his team’s 29-13 win on Sunday, February 8. He also appeared on the “New Heights” podcast with hosts Travis and Jason Kelce on Wednesday, where he talked about his coach, Mike MacDonald, who argued Kupp is a future Hall of Famer and “a great teammate.”
“I think the other thing with Coop is the way he’s helped our program and how we do things from day to day is not talked about enough. He’s got a great perspective,” MacDonald, 38, told the media after the Super Bowl. “I’d be an idiot not to listen to him. Sometimes we don’t do what he wants, but we definitely listen to him.”
“You don’t go to the Hall of Fame for being a great teammate,” Kupp said. “But you don’t go to the Hall of Fame for winning six Super Bowls, either, we just learned.”
That was a not-so-subtle reference to former Patriots coach Bill Belichick, who shockingly fell short of garnering enough votes to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his first year on the ballot in 2025.
Belichick, 73, won six Super Bowls as Patriots head coach in addition to two more as an assistant. He is now the head football coach at the University of North Carolina.

Kupp also gave more details on the podcast about the Seahawks’ second Super Bowl crown. In a frustrating game for both offenses, he revealed Seattle’s lone offensive touchdown, a 16-yard pass from quarterback Sam Darnold to tight end A.J. Barner, almost went horribly wrong.
“I’m so pumped for Barnyard, man. His touchdown was almost a disaster,” Kupp said. “There was a problem, I think it was on the wristband. But we called the play, I think Jaxon [Smith-Njigba] is out at the time he’s going through his protocol to get back out. The call ended up being like the formation was backwards to what the play call was. I see A.J. running towards, and I was like, ‘Oh, my gosh. I’m about to run the wrong route.’ So I changed it on the fly. We almost had a complete disaster. We got it done.”
Barner, 23, joined the podcast as well and said he wasn’t aware of the mix-up.
“I heard Yada Yada Y Scissors, and I’m like ‘Alright, bet. I know the play. Air this thing out. I know where to line up. You boys line up. Let’s get this damn play called,’” he said.
