SuperSport Blitz sends out accidental tweet
Updated | By East Coast Radio
Luckily one Twitter user was able to screenshot the tweet before it was deleted.
There are many corporations, brands, and companies that have Twitter accounts.
Having a business Twitter page might even be considered a must in this digital day and age.
Sometimes these pages are super successful like Netflix:
Me: “I’m going to bed early tonight and getting a full 8 hours of sleep”

But being in charge of a company's social media pages can be stressful, especially if they have a huge following.
One example of a social media mistake is forgetting to log out of the company account.

And we can only assume that is what happened to whoever runs the SuperSport Blitz account.
This morning South Africans were blessed with the following tweet:

The tweet has since been deleted but will forever remain on the internet because, well, that's just how it works.
Hopefully the person who decided to shoot their shot has had some success... on their own account, of course!
This is also not the first time something like this has happened.
Below are some other hilarious social media blunders.

The fatal posting instead of searching:
My computer immediately crashed and I couldn’t turn it back on. I had to walk to the library to delete it. It was probably up for a full 35 minutes. She had also gone to school there and everyone knew they had dated.

And, of course, when the person in charge of the Twitter account forgets to log out:
