Aaron Rodgers Channels Iconic Nic Cage Meme On Way To Packers Training Camp

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who spent last season winning the MVP award while trolling the media about his COVID-19 vaccination status (saying he was "immunized" when he was not), has resumed his comedic ways by showing up to Packers camp in a very familiar look.

Nearly everyone who saw the viral video immediately recognized what Rodgers was referencing: Nicolas Cage in the 1997 movie Con Air.

Cage's Con Air performance is certainly one of his most GIFed in a career full of GIF-worthy moments. Why Rodgers chose to emulate it is anyone's guess at the moment, as he's yet to publically comment about the reference.

He has made similar humorous entrances to his NFL training camp in the past.

While many in the sports world took Rodgers' arrival in good humor, some were still unamused by Rodgers' shenanigans, particularly after seeming to take a lax attitude about the pandemic last year.

The irony is that Nic Cage spends half the movie trying to find his buddy a needle so he can get a shot. https://t.co/vV9Ucwl03M

Nicholas Cage could lead the Packers to a Conference Championship loss but Aaron Rodgers couldn’t do Pig https://t.co/1pvazU2ucx

For Rodgers and the rest of our sakes, here's hoping the Packers do alright this year, lest he show up to training camp in 2023 looking like Nic Cage in Mandy.
