“Unexpected Live TV Twist: Sydney Sweeney’s Hilarious Comeback to Mascot’s Surprising Request!”
In a world where live TV stunts can leave us both cringing and laughing, one brave soul in a gigantic duck costume decided to make his play for actress Sydney Sweeney during ESPN’s College GameDay. Now, you might think it’s a lost cause to make a romantic overture when the star of Euphoria is already engaged, but this audacious mascot sure wasn’t dissuaded by the odds. After all, there’s a certain charm in shooting your shot—no matter how quackers it might seem! And while the idea of dating a person in a duck suit may ruffle some feathers, Sweeney’s response not only put a humorous spin on the situation but left social media buzzing. So, what happens when fairytales take on a feathery twist? Let’s dive into this delightful tale of love, laughter, and elaborate costumes! LEARN MORE.
Most people wouldn’t have the heart to turn down a bloke donning a huge duck costume who was brave enough to shoot their shot on live TV, but Sydney Sweeney had no qualms about hitting back with an absolutely savage response.
To be fair, he’s absolutely quackers for thinking it could work – especially as the Euphoria actress, 27, has been engaged to businessman Jonathan Davino as of October 2023 – but fair play to him all the same.
Viewers tuning into ESPN’s College GameDay coverage on Saturday (12 October) were left stunned when they spotted the University of Oregon’s mascot making a bid for Sweeney‘s affections in the background.
As the presenters made their predictions ahead of Ohio State’s showdown against their rivals, college football fans watching from home couldn’t believe their eyes when they spotted the duck trying his luck.

The mascot appeared as though he was nearly dislocating his shoulder while attempting to get his sign in the shot.
It simply read: “Sydney Sweeney call me back.”
Straight to the point, you’ve got to respect his game – although I’m sure Davino wasn’t too impressed by it.
Social media users went wild after spotting the tongue-in-cheek sign and took to Twitter to share their thoughts.
One laughed: “That duck knows what’s up!”
Another wrote: “The Oregon Duck is the greatest mascot in the history of this planet. I will take no arguments on this.”
A third chimed in: “The Oregon Duck always has got jokes. Love it!”

A fourth added: “Honestly, the Oregon Duck living that relatable life – chaotic, energetic, and always stealing the show!”
While a fifth joked: “She never called you back either…I know the feeling haha.”
But it turns out that Sweeney has an explanation for why she’s apparently been blanking phone calls left, right and centre.
The Anyone But You star took to her Instagram stories to respond to The Oregon Duck’s declaration of interest after it went viral, while sharing a snap of him holding the comical sign.
Sweeney wrote alongside the image: “Sorry. Changed my number haha.”
A nice way to duck out of a potential date with a random man in a waterfowl costume, to be fair.
Let’s hope the rejection was like water off a duck’s back for him, anyway – and Oregon did end up bagging a win over Ohio State in the end too, so maybe that guy is a lucky duck after all.
Right – that’s the last ducking joke, I swear.
