Quarterback Tommy DeVito has caught the attention of many during his rookie season with the New York Giants. One person in particular who is among this group is New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge.
In advance of DeVito and the Giants facing the Philadelphia Eagles on December 25, the signal-caller sat down for an interview with NFL Network’s Peter Schrager. A three-minute segment was shared by Fox Sports on X, formerly Twitter right before New York and Philadelphia took the field.
In response to Schrager asking, “What’s been the coolest interaction? Or, maybe just the experience. What’s it been for you?” DeVito talked about his encounter with Judge while being out to eat at the same New York City restaurant earlier in December.
Two nights ago, I went out to dinner in the City, and the table next to me was Aaron Judge. I saw him out of the corner of my eye before, but I didn’t want to go say ‘Hello’ yet so I waited until the end of dinner,” said DeVito. “I went to go pay, and the waiter had come over and said, ‘Aaron tried to pay for your tab. I turned around and I was like, ‘This guy knows who I am?’ I turned around and introduced myself and that was an awesome experience because I am a Yankees fan.”
