"Oh hold up, Judge Judy!" The Chargers player claps as recognition dawns, then asks the important follow-up: "Oh she's with us?"
She is. Judith Sheindlin stands on the sideline in a customized Chargers jersey, dark blazer and cap, smiling and waving to the crowd. The player wearing number zero sounds delighted to discover that the television judge is part of the day's company.
NFL on CBS posted the moment as "Rightfully star struck 😆," with the footage credited on screen to the Chargers. It drew about 157,000 views in fourteen hours, putting it well ahead of the channel's usual opening pace for a Short.
The camera cut supplies another little joke: a player reacting as though he's spotted a celebrity in the distance, followed by a shot placing her right there on the sideline. Viewers are discussing that framing and how close she appears to the players. No courtroom confrontation here, just an NFL player briefly becoming the fan.
