A bachelor party gag at the Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta might look pretty familiar to Chicago locals.
As we know, the Bears played the Atlanta Falcons this weekend, and they were well-represented at the game in the form of an 18-person costume idea where a Chicago bachelor party all dressed up as former coach Mike Ditka.

Dika coached the Bears from 1982 to ’92 and was a tight end for Chicago from 1961 to ’66. The entire bachelor party donned the former coach’s famous sweater vest and khakis, completing the look with signature mustaches and aviator sunglasses.
A brother of one party attendee tweeted out a photo of the joke outfits and they’ve since gone viral, after the NFL broadcasted their iconic looks on the big screen and across TVs nationwide.

While we don’t know their exact intention behind the hilarious homage, it is true that the Hall of Famer still ranks as one of the most popular coaches in NFL history as he’s earned the Coach of the Year title twice and lead the Bears to the Super Bowl XX title.
