Cell phone owners around the United States received a text message from President Trump on Wednesday. It was a test of a newly-formed emergency alert system.
The sports world had a lot of fun with this.
Tweeters everywhere decided to insert their own alerts.

There were plenty more along those lines. Then, of course, we got the ultimate alert. This one will be hard to live down.
