Heated Exchange: Pat McAfee Tells John Mellencamp to “Shut the F*** Up”

Pat McAfee has responded vigorously after John Mellencamp criticized him during Game Four of the Eastern Conference Finals, telling him to “shut the f*** up.” On “The Pat McAfee Show,” the former Colts punter took aim at Mellencamp's remarks, asserting, “You’re two days late, John! You’re two days late, bub!” Though Mellencamp didn’t directly name McAfee, his comments referenced the latter’s WWE-style promotion aimed at high-profile Knicks fans in attendance. McAfee expressed gratitude to his supporters, stating, “I don’t think you or your team realized there were people backing me.” He concluded with a desire to meet Mellencamp soon, suggesting an encounter might happen at Saturday’s ECF Game 6 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
