He made it clear that the suite wasn’t his, acknowledging, “Well, first of all, it is not my box. I did not buy that in the preseason–it’s very expensive.”
Browning went on to explain, “So, Joe Burrow was nice enough to give them some tickets so they didn’t have to sit up in the cold. We’re all from California, so I’m used to it, but they’re not. I’m sure they were much more excited in the box.”
The Importance of Support and Celebration
