CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WXIA) -- Four words: Dad of the year.
His son probably can't see it now, but he was doing it for his own good.
Okay, maybe it was really to save a little money. It's not cheap to go to any Cavs game. But that didn't keep dad from doing a little trolling.
USA TODAY Sports Images photographer Jeremy Brevard captured this photo at the game.
"Thomas get your grades back up and next time you'll be here," it read with a sad emoji.
Poor Thomas. Not only does he apparently have bad grades, but now he's the center of a trending story on social media.

"Maybe if Dad wasn't spending time making a poster for an NBA game and helping me with my homework instead I'd have better grades." - Thomas https://t.co/QJuGsLzXtC

Maybe if dad knew how to use punctuation, he'd be able to help Thomas get his grades back up. https://t.co/3EJKTpJcrR

Agreed on that last one. I was going to mention the missing commas. But hey, when you're the dad, you get to make the rules.
