The subject turned to college football, and Berg, colorfully and somewhat slurred, encouraged the group to keep an eye on Auburn’s quarterback.

“Right now, I watch a dude, Cal What’s-His-Name,” he said emphatically and erroneously, adding to the video’s viral charm.

Yes, it seems like every college football fan is talking about Auburn quarterback Cal … er … Cam Newton these days.
