‘Top Gun’ fan said he’d ‘eat a shoe’ if sequel was made — and he did
Top Gun sequel ever happened, was forced to swallow his pride and some laces this week.On October 26, 2010, at exactly 7:42 pm., Patches declared on Twitter, “If ‘Top Gun 2’ happens, I will eat a shoe.”As “Top Gun: Maverick,” the highly-anticipated sequel to the classic ’80s movie, hits theaters Memorial Day weekend, Patches admitted, “I made a grave error.”The original tweet has since been deleted, but that hasn’t stopped it from resurfacing throughout the years. Paramount reportedly even joined in on the joke, sending Patches a cake shaped like a shoe.
