T. Boone Pickens, 84-Year-Old Texas Oil Tycoon, Pwns Drake On Twitter

This 84-Year Old Tycoon Won Twitter Today

T. Boone Pickens may be the coolest billionaire on Twitter.

The 84-year-old Texas oil tycoon responded to a tweet from rapper Drake last night with a tweet of his own. But what's memorable about the Twitter interaction is not that Pickens responded, but that he trumped the 25-year-old rapper.

Pickens strayed from his usual subject matter and re-tweeted Drake's message about becoming a millionaire with an observation of his own.

Well played, Pickens.

Drake had no choice but to acknowledge the one-up.

More than 8,200 Twitter users re-tweeted the exchange between the unlikely pair, according to Mashable.

Oddly, Pickens does not follow Drake, so why he chose to respond to the rapper is anyone's guess.
