JJ Watt has tremendous ‘Saved by the Bell’ Twitter exchange

September 27, 2015 by Larry Brown • Comments

JJ Watt had the kind of social media exchange Sunday that any true child of the ’90s would die for.

Watt, who had five tackles in the Texans’ 19-9 win over the Buccaneers, shared a photo on Twitter of him with actor/TV host Mario Lopez.

Watt captioned the photo with a “Saved by the Bell” reference by shouting out Bayside High, the fictional school where the show’s cast members attended. Then his hashtag was “where is Kelly Kapowski,” which was actress Tiffani Thiessen’s name in the show.

Thiessen caught wind of the tweet and sent a fantastic response.

@jjwatt I heard you were looking for me. I'm in LA catching up on my reading. Btw, good game today.… https://t.co/P7wuXyQDS2

— Tiffani Thiessen (@TiffaniThiessen) September 27, 2015

The Instagram photo shows her reading the Men’s Fitness magazine featuring Watt on the cover:

That left Watt’s mind blown. “This. Is. Awesome.” was his response.

Yes, yes it was. Between Thiessen and Playboy model Lindsey Pelas, Watt seems to have caught lots of women in his web.
