The Golden Knights’ quest to be a worldwide franchise has expanded to Vatican City.

The team’s Twitter account showed off a photo of Pope Francis receiving a custom Knights jersey Friday. The jersey was delivered by a fan who took the initiative to deliver the threads before a meeting with the head of the Catholic church.

The pope, though not known for his fashion, seemed pretty excited about the new gear.
