Watch Peyton Manning and Magic Johnson smash raw eggs on their heads
“I never thought it would be in Russian Egg Roulette”. “I said, ‘Man, if you play again, come to the Rams.’ I was working on him backstage”. You would think most people wouldn’t want the fast food pizza guy as the starting quarterback of their football team, but Magic Johnson isn’t most people.
Magic Johnson and Peyton Manning faced off in a game of Egg Russian Roulette on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon”. “I will even chip in some money”.
Manning, who labored through the worst statistical year of his career, was benched due to injury and ineffectiveness in November and only got his starting job back in Week 17.
Then, he and Fallon quickly pivoted to a bit where they spoke to a life-sized cutout of Eli, the New York Giants quarterback who won two Super Bowl rings himself. Everyone was cheering and jumping up and down, but Eli showed no emotion.
“Eli, I got us front-row tickets to see Adele!” The NFL and National Basketball Association star took turns picking an egg at random and smashing it on top of their heads.
First Manning, fresh off his Super Bowl victory, clearly overconfident, slams an un-boiled egg into his forehead.
“Dreams come true”, Fallon quipped before Manning smashed a raw egg on his head. Not to be outdone, the same thing happened to Johnson.
