NFL Star Antonio Brown Visits PSG For His Birthday

NFL star Antonio Brown chose to celebrate his 31st birthday this month by heading to Paris with his family, during which time he took in a tour of Parc des Princes. You know, in-between buying watches for one million euros, as you do.

It’s not an uncommon sight to see sports stars crossing boundaries in the off-season and soaking up the atmosphere and environment of other sports. And this week it was Oakland Raiders wide receiver Antonio Brown who headed to Paris to take in a stadium tour of the Parc des Princes ahead of his return to the U.S. for a first season in California. 

The former Pittsburgh Steelers player, who is described as the highest-paid receiver in the NFL since his March 2019 switch to Oakland, was given his own 2019/20 PSG shirt, complete with his name and the number 84.

The trip comes after Nike took Kylian Mbappe in the opposite direction, giving the young PSG star a taste of American life on a U.S. tour, and you imagine that they would have had a hand in opening some doors for Brown on his European vacation.
