After the game last night, WIP marketing-PR wiz Cindy Webster saw Connor Barwin jog off the field with a beer in his hand. Today, Barwin explained how that all went down to Mike and Ike:

“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. 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.”

Marshawn Lynch has skittles, Connor Barwin has beer. It can be his new thing. If he scores a touchdown somehow or gets a sack or a pick, fans can throw a beer at h… wait, that’s not a good idea. Just buy him a beer if you see him out. Ask him what he wants first though, everything about him screams that he’d prefer something of the non-Bud Light variety.
