Tim Cook made fun of his own lousy Super Bowl photo
Asa Mathat D: All Things Digital
"Maybe one day I can take one that good," Apple CEO Tim Cook quipped on stage, to great laughter.
Cook was referring to the most recent Super Bowl Sunday, when the CEO infamously tweeted a super-blurry shot from the big game - resulting in a lot of laughs from the armchair comedians of the internet.
The original photo:

Now, it's no secret that Apple takes the iPhone's camera technology incredibly seriously, so people were quick to give Cook heat about the out-of-focus photo, with plenty of joking references to Apple's famous "Shot on iPhone" marketing campaign.
