Patrick Mahomes jokes about demoting wife Brittany to #3 on top fans list in favor of 2012 ESPYs host
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is one of the most likeable NFL players and athletes in today's sports world. Whether it's his crazy side-arm no-look passes he's completing or whether it's him leading the Chiefs to the Super Bowl, sports fans in general seem to like him.
There might not be anyone that likes him more than comedian Rob Riggle. Riggle, who hosted the 2012 ESPYs, and Mahomes recently discussed Riggle's 'obsession' over Mahomes on the comedian's podcast, "Riggles Picks."
Speaking with Riggle and his co-host, Darren Leader, Mahomes said that Riggle is his number one fan, ahead of his mother and his wife, Brittany.
"It goes Rob Riggle, my mom, Brittany. My biggest fans."
Mahomes was then offered by Leader, to give him his number in case Riggle gets too much for Mahomes. Mahomes jokingly took up that offer saying he might need his number in case Riggle is 'bothering' him.
"It's all good I appreciate it.. I'm gonna need that number though."
Patrick Mahomes says he would never do a roast on the Rob Riggle podcast
While appearing on Riggle's Picks, Rob Riggle and Patrick Mahomes discussed an array of topics in a 45-minute long episode that included some laughs from time-to-time.
The two discussed the possibilty of Mahomes three-peating as a Super Bowl champion, Mahomes' charity, his golf game and about a potential fight with Mike Tyson.
Celebrity boxing has become a trend these days, but Mahomes quickly shut down the idea of boxing a former heavyweight champion. In his answer about a potnetial fight with Tyson, Mahomes said there's no money that could get him in the ring with Tyson and he also said there is no money for him to be included as a roast.
Mahomes said:
"There's zero price for me to get in the ring with Mike Tyson. I've never been a big fighter, in general. If it's life or death, I'll defend myself, but I usually let the big guys do it. So it's definitely not something that I'm looking to do after I'm done with my career. And the roast. I'm not doing a roast." [Time stamp - 30:01]
Former NFL quarterback Tom Brady recently had a roast about him that streamed on Netflix, titled, "The Greatest Roast of All-Time."
Of course, there were many sensitive and personal shots directed at Brady during the event. He even said after the roast he wouldn't do it again because of the effect it had on his family.
From Riggle's recent interview with Patrick Mahomes, we found out that Mahomes will never partake in a roast either.
