Al Michaels claims to have never eaten a vegetable, and it appears he never will
The veteran NFL announcer was on his weekly ‘Thursday Night Football’ gig, calling the Vikings-Rams game alongside Kirk Herbstreit, when cameras entered what must be his favorite eating spot, given he’s apparently been over 4,000 times.
We’re accepting corrections on that stat as it does seem impossibly high.
Michael’s meal was also shown, with vegetables being taken off his table before his sumptuous meal became the focal point.
“No veggies, baby. No veggies,” he said. “You know that.”
