42. Final. 24. 36. 49ers-Seahawks final. 36

George Kittle doesn't mind taking pot shots at other teams and their fanbases, and such was the case after the 49ers beat the Seahawks in Week 6.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle is no stranger to taking shots at rival opponents.

Heck, a year ago, the All-Pro donned a NSFW t-shirt underneath his uniform in a primetime game against the Dallas Cowboys, one Kittle didn't hesitate to show off during the Niners' one-sided victory.

Kittle might have dialed it back a bit during and after the Niners' Week 6 Thursday Night Football victory over another rival, the Seattle Seahawks.

But he didn't hesitate to have a little fun with one Hawks fan in particular immediately after the 36-24 win.

George Kittle trolls Seahawks fan by giving him his 49ers hat

Kittle was a force during Thursday night's game, hauling in two touchdown passes, including one that ended up being the game winner late in the fourth quarter.

Immediately after the game, while running to the locker room, Kittle tossed his hat to the corner of the stands near the tunnel, right at a noteworthy Seattle fan who was standing there and caught it:

A few steps later, Kittle gestured back to the fan with a WWE-like showing, made famous by the tandem of D-Generation X

It wasn't just a coincidence catch from the fan either. After the game, Kittle pointed out that he knew who the fan was after having played at Lumen Field for so many years now.

"The guy in the corner with all the crazy signs, I gave him my hat after the game," Kittle said during his postgame presser. "I don't think he liked it. I enjoyed that one."

Kittle also admitted how much he enjoys playing at Lumen Field, specifically because Seahawks fans carry a bitter hatred of the 49ers that dates well beyond 10 years now when the NFC West rivalry was at its peak in the early 2010s.

"It's actually fun," Kittle said when describing playing in such an atmosphere.

For now, the Niners have the last laugh after upending the Hawks to seize the top spot in the division.

Of course, Seattle will look to return the favor later this year when both teams play in Week 11 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
