SLICES: JJ Watt’s a Nice Guy!

Scott Sigler Slices

Show Notes

Douglas Sandstorm, a football fan, posted on social media about eating breakfast next to JJ Watt in a Greenwich Village diner, saying he chose to give the footballer his privacy.

Watt ended up seeing that tweet and replying with “Are you still in the area?” and showed up to share a beer with Sandstorm.

Such a graceful nod to his fans, which is no surprise from Watt, is known for being a nice guy. Creating memories on and off the field is just the coolest move, and we’re here for it!

Scott & A will be at Dragon*Con in Atlanta, GA this year! Come out and see us over Labor Day Weekend!

Are all the Watt brothers this cool? I should blog about it.

Hailing from Wisconsin, the Watt brothers are expected to be polite midwesterners. That said, these guys go above and beyond, and if I had a new three-year domain from GoDaddy, using GoDaddy Promo Code CJCFOSSIG3 to get ninety-nine percent off that first year? You know I’d be talking about it. Gotta love a nice guy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
