Fans and brands flocked to the comments section, keeping the moment alive. Slim Jim joked: “First rule of parallel parking in New York: park somewhere else,” while QuickBooks UK added: “He’s not burning… he’s just trying to back up.” »
Others chimed in with phrases like, “He’s always parking as we speak.”
