Before the first edition of Monday Night Football, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs showed off his sweet cleats that paid tribute to Randy Moss.

Later on during the actual game between the Vikings and New Orleans Saints, Diggs honored Moss once again by catching a touchdown while wearing the cleats and celebrating just like Moss would.
Hello, End zone!
Sam Bradford. @stefondiggs. Touchdown, @VIKINGS!. #SKOL #NOvsMIN https://t.co/9ezBXNd3hA

Shades of Moss in Minnesota again is a sight for sore Vikings’ fan’s eyes.
What makes it all even better is that Moss signed the cleats before the game.

So let me get this straight:
Diggs first had cleats made to honor Moss.
Then before wearing them in a game, Moss signed them.
THEN during the game that Diggs wore them in, Diggs caught a touchdown and then went on to celebrate like Moss WITH MOSS IN ATTENDANCE!?
The only person who probably didn’t think this was cool is this random Twitter user who felt the need to @ the NFL, Diggs, and the Vikings to let them know that Diggs was on his Fantasy Football team bench.
