Nick Foles got an unexpected surprise from a fellow Austin, Texas, native this weekend.
Actor Matthew McConaughey bought our Eagles superstar a full-page newspaper ad on Sunday in the Austin-American Statesman. The managing editor of the paper showed it off in a tweet:
Bromance, Austin-style, in the pages of today's Austin American-Statesman as @McConaughey took out an ad to congratulate @NFoles_9. Alright, alright, alright. #FlyEaglesFly pic.twitter.com/C86udnEjoR

McConaughey is a diehard Washington football fan, but apparently his love of Texans outweighs his love of team.
The ad reads: “From one local to another, Congratulations Nick Foles. just keep livin, Matthew McConaughey.”
Just keep livin. Very McConaughey.

I, for one, am sorry that Matthew McConaughey didn't work a "time is a flat circle" into the full-page ad he bought to congratulate Nick Foles https://t.co/t3sY6fH8GI
