Ex-NFL Kicker Jay Feely Says Prom Photo With Gun Was A Joke
See the picture that sparked a lot of feelings on the internet

Former NFL kicker and CBS commentator Jay Feely is apologizing after posting a photo of him with his daughter and her prom date.
In the picture he’s standing in between the couple holding a gun. On Twitter he wrote,
“Wishing my beautiful daughter and her date a great time at prom #BadBoys.”
He received so much criticism for the photo, he made an apology saying,
The prom picture I posted was obviously intended to be a joke. My Daughter has dated her boyfriend for over a year and they knew I was joking. I take gun safety seriously (the gun was not loaded and had no clip in) and I did not intend to be insensitive to that important issue.”
See the original post and the apology below. What do you think? Are you outraged or is this no big deal?
