Last week on The Talk, Jerry O’Connell and Akbar Gbaja-Biamila made a bet on who would win the Super Bowl. Jerry said if the Philadelphia Eagles win, then Akbar would have to get inside a large Philly cheesesteak sandwich. And the football player bet if the Kansas City Chiefs took home the trophy, then the actor would have to go swimming in barbeque sauce.
As we know, the Chiefs won. So Jerry stripped down to his KC Chiefs bathing suit and stepped into a pool of BBQ sauce as his co-host sang, “I want my Jerry back Jerry back Jerry back,” like the baby back ribs song. And now I am craving ribs!
Back to Jerry, he swam in that BBQ sauce like a pig in mud, so you know he is going to be finding the condiment in his cracks and crevasses for so many days.
And you have to give him credit for following through with the bet. Yes, they made it on national television, but he could’ve tried to get out of it.
Oh, and that is why actors shouldn’t bet former football players on the outcome of games; the latter knows more about the sport.
