Super Bowl 49: Captain America vs Star Lord? Avengers: Age of Ultron actor, Boston native and New England Patriots fan Chris Evans won his Super Bowl 49 bet over Guardians of the Galaxy star and Seattle Seahawks fan Chris Pratt. Jurassic World star Pratt may have celebrated his film's new extended trailer -- which premiered during the Super Bowl -- but was shattered by his team's 28-24 loss, and as result he'll now be visiting Christopher's Haven, a Boston home for kids dealing with cancer... dressed as Star Lord. As a show of good faith, however he'll be joined by Captain America star Evans.
Evans -- who recently admitted to deflating the Patriots balls at the center of Deflate-Gate — started the beef, tweeting "Well, well, well @prattprattpratt, looks like our teams are going into battle. For the next 2 weeks, you are not my friend, you are my enemy."
35 year old Pratt — who is married to Mom star Anna Farris — replied: "We both know there's only one Captain America and his name is Russell Wilson. #SuperBowlBound #LOB #Repeat."

As E! Online report, "The Parks and Recreation star took Evans up on his offer, tweeting, "@ChrisEvans OK. Seahawks win you fly yourself to Seattle, visit @seattlechildren hospital as Captain America, waving the 12th man flag." Evans replied, "I accept. And when the Patriots humiliate your seachickens, I expect Star-Lord to arrive at @chris_haven in a Brady jersey."
Congrats to the world champions @patriots you were the better team tonight. I will be visiting @chris_haven as Starlord. #twitterbowl

Evans added that he would join Pratt in visiting the kids, and that the two would also visit Seattle together. The Avengers: Age of Ultron star also called Brady 'the greatest ever'.

Evans' Avengers co-star Jeremy Renner pointed out that Hawkeye would be watching the game from his nest, and congratulated the pair for an "amazing Super Bowl."

The friendly bet also spurred a pretty terrific online challenge of fans pitting Captain America against Star Lord.

Hell, Pratt even got a redesigned Star Lord helmet!
“@wmarmory: Hey I upgraded a helmet for you for tomorrows game! #SuperBowl #Seahawks #12s pic.twitter.com/fKTiPYA3zi” ok that's badass

And tweeted out the ‘real’ Captain America: Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson.
“@CNRTOW: See what you started @prattprattpratt pic.twitter.com/thCuvs55eR” @ChrisEvans — chris pratt (@prattprattpratt) January 26, 2015
Just a shame that the 'real' Captain America threw a game ending interception, huh? Either way, Pratt can console himself with the fact that Jurassic World looks incredible and he'll make roughly a kajillion dollars from it.
