Foo Fighters Rickroll Westboro Baptist Church

The Foo Fighters have come up with a fun way to counter the antics of the Westboro protesters by using music.

Billboard.com reports, “Westboro Baptist Church targeted a Foo Fighters concert at Kansas City’s Sprint Center on Friday, Aug. 21, and the band fired back — with a Rickroll. The band arrived on the scene via a pickup truck, blasting Rick Astley’s 1987 single Never Gonna Give You Up and holding up signs that read You Got Rick Roll’d Again and Keep It Clean.”

Here is a video of the incident.

This is a case of the Foo Fighters becoming the poo fighters, because poo is just what the Westboro folks keep slinging. What the latter are doing is enough to make a chimpanzee go . . .
