The Chicago Bears’ 24-15 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles will be a memorable game for many reasons.
Ben Johnson's team earned a signature win on the road against the reigning Super Bowl champions and did so by running all over the Eagles, creating a fumble on the Tush Push and intercepting Jalen Hurts, who had only thrown one pick all season before Week 13.
What happened between the white lines at Lincoln Financial Field will forever be ingrained in Bears fans' minds.
But arguably the most memorable aspect about the game occurred in the postgame locker room right before Johnson's weekly “Good, Better, Best” victory chant.
The iconic Ben Johnson moment turned into a wild mystery
Johnson took off his shirt for good reason. The Weiners Circle posted an X in October, stating it would give away free hot dogs in Chicago if Johnson took his shirt off during or after a Bears’ victory.

The Bears’ head coach felt it was the right time to help feed the city. During that iconic moment, a picture went viral on social media.
It featured a shirtless Johnson and his players celebrating the victory over the Eagles, but towards the back of the image, someone appears to have punched or pushed up the ceiling tile.
Asked around the Bears' locker room to try and figure out who punched through the ceiling. Nobody could give me a definitive answer.

I spoke with
- Tyson Bagent
- Darnell Wright
- Austin Booker
- Travis Homer
- J.P. Richardson
- Jahdae Walker
Jaylon Johnson even asked some… pic.twitter.com/Cm0vndKezR
Of course, Bears fans wanted to know who that person was in the back of the locker room.
After speaking with several players, including Tyson Bagent, Darnell Wright, Austin Booker, Travis Homer, J.P. Richardson, and Jahdae Walker, the ceiling puncher/pusher is still unknown. The players couldn't provide a definitive answer when asked about it.
Now, there is a realistic chance that the Bears players didn't want to reveal who the person was, which illustrates the connectedness of the entire locker room. But there appeared to be genuine responses from players who had no idea.

Maybe the person will never be revealed, and, honestly, it's probably better that way. That may help anyone on the Bears’ staff avoid a potential fine, but it also makes an iconic photo even more memorable for what has already been a season fans won't forget anytime soon.
