Come Monday, it'll be all right.

A fan got thrown out of the NY Knicks game at Madison Square Garden on Sunday. It was Jimmy Buffett, the guy who sang the national anthem and was rooting for the visiting Miami Heat.
Heat coach Pat Riley asked the official if he was a "parrothead." The official thought it was an an insult and almost threw Riley out of the game.
A parrothead is a Jimmy Buffett fan, just as a deadhead follows the Grateful Dead. Both are either one word or two words.
"Deadhead" made the RHHDAS; I don't know the fate of "parrothead."
I know it's my own damn fault.
--Jimmy Buffett
