Connor Barwin worked up a thirst Sunday afternoon at Gillette Stadium.
The Philadelphia Eagles linebacker had a fantastic game, recording a pair of sacks in the Eagles’ upset win over the New England Patriots and won a bet with Patriots fans in the process.
CBS Philly shared a story about Barwin and a group of Patriots fans Sunday, a story that ended with Barwin earning a cold Bud Light as he walked off the field.
“I go out to the field and warm up by myself early and some Patriots fans — that these stadiums now have access where they’re right up on the field — and they were kind of messing with me,” Barwin said Monday on 94 WIP in Philadelphia, per CBS Philly. “Talking about how I wasn’t going to get any sacks, we weren’t going to win, blah, blah, blah. And I just said make sure you have a beer ready for me after we win. And sure enough, we won and they had a Bud Light ready for me so I grabbed it on my way out.”
