The St. Louis Blues have a new rally cry, and fans have autocorrect to thank.

As the Blues overcame a 5-2 deficit to tie the Chicago Blackhawks on Wednesday night, Elise Butler, who manages the hockey team’s social media, posted a photo to the Blues’ Instagram account with this caption:

“Well that was something.#OurBlues roar bacon with three second-period goals to tie the game 5-5.#STLvsCHI”

Butler didn’t actually write “roar bacon.” Her autocorrect did, and she didn’t see the change before she published the photo. But by the time she noticed the error, the course of Blues fan history was already forever changed.

Accidentally turned it into the Blues fandom's new hashtag. #RoarBacon https://t.co/2kwSpYKqI8 — Elise Butler (@elisebutler) November 5, 2015 @myregularface Haha thank you. All I really did was not change an autocorrect, the fans did the rest! — Elise Butler (@elisebutler) November 5, 2015

The Blues rallied to beat the Blackhawks 6-5 in overtime, forever solidifying roar bacon’s role in Blues fandom.

It’s official. Roar bacon is now a thing.

Just a few minutes after the game ended, #RoarBacon became a trending topic on Twitter...

...and inspired its own social media accounts.

Of course, there are roar bacon t-shirts.

Most of all, “roar bacon” seems to have inspired St. Louis hockey lovers to eat as much bacon as possible. (And maybe we shouldn’t be surprised after how STL took the news that bacon could cause cancer.)

And of course, Blues fans’ meme game was on point.

So thanks, Internet, for transforming an autocorrect typo into the rally cry in a comeback win. Now if you’ll excuse us, we’re in the mood for some bacon.
