For what it is worth, here is a little update on what TO was like in person...
He had a private area roped off for him, and he was announcing the game as we were watching it...more like adding in little bits of opinion here and there, but wanting the attention none the less. One of the people I was with asked to take a picture with him, and he said "Make it quick." Like he could not be bothered.
Aaron rodgers on the other hand saw my buddy wearing a packer hat, gave him the fist bump, took a picture with him, and when he found out it was his bachelor party (yeah, we are nerds like that to go to Sundance) went out of his way to wish him luck and be cool.
It was basically how I think of the players on the field. T.O. was sort of a Jag-off, and A Rog was a down to earth good guy. (though I was admittedly most in awe of Steve Nash who is a legend in my mind.) It was also clearly more TO that was talking about being a packer, Rogers said nothing of the sort and was slent about it the whole time. I dont think they were actually there together, but both invited by ESPN who was hosting it, so I may have overplayed initially the personal nature of them being there at the same time.
