A photo of a Penn State University fan's sign has recently been shared on social media and caused controversy for being "distasteful."
The sign says Flint's water quality is better than the University of Michigan's quarterback quality, ahead of Saturday's game between Penn State and Michigan.
No chill whatsoever pic.twitter.com/O5oO1MfvsP

How disgusting that people joke about this. Football is a game. Peoples lives and wellbeing are not. Whoever did this should be ashamed.

Penn St. fans really want to go there? Even though they know what happened on their campus for decades? Really? REALLY?
