Actor Bill Murray: 'St. Louis Cardinals Fans Are Satan's Messengers On Earth'

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – Actor Bill Murray took aim at St. Louis Cardinal fans during a recent pro-golf tournament.

Murray called Cardinals fans "Satan's messengers on Earth," during the John Deere Classic in Silvis, Ill.

Video of Murray's comments was posted on the PGA Golf's YouTube channel.

The actor is known as being a Chicago Cubs fan, and his remarks came after he noticed a couple of fans at the tee box.

He asked if any fans saw his beloved Cubs sweep St. Louis in a double-header Tuesday.

That's when a woman behind the ropes said she was a Cardinals fan.

"No wonder there's something coming off of your body, like an ectoplasm phosphorus," Murray told her.

The Pittsburgh Pirates take on the Cardinals for a pivotal 4-game series starting tonight at PNC Park.

Needless to say, after the comments, Pirates fans now say Murray is their favorite Ghostbuster.
