She was left dumbfounded.In a video clip shared by Rain Drops Media on X, Minglae is heard saying, “He told me he was a bench player when I met him coz I didn’t know nothing about football, I said, ‘What position do you play?’ He said, ‘The bench,’ *side eyes Luther* But he was the #1 receiver in the country. I didn’t do my research, so he told me to come to a game, and he had like five touchdowns that game.” “Classic case of underplaying your talent. She showed up for the benchwarmer and ended up witnessing a superstar. Love that for them,” wrote one X user after watching Kendall Minglae talk about the Chicago rookie star.

Luther Burden had himself a legendary day, and his girlfriend’s loyalty was rewarded with the shock of a lifetime. That’s a first date story that’s downright impossible to top.”A user spoke professionally: “She said she didn’t do her research. She knows its a business. It could’ve ended bad for her by not researching the job she applied for. She was smart. She went to the interview anyway. And got the promotion.” Another praised the effort: “It’s always dope to tell somebody you’re trash at sports and then show out.”A third user shared, “When someone believes in you on the bench, they deserve you in the end zone.” A fourth user declared, “Girls always do their research. Shes lying lol.”A fifth user commented, “That’s a real one right there [laughing face and red heart emojis] Pulled up thinking she was supporting a role player and ended up watching the best WR in the country go crazy.
