Pat McAfee shares funny Adrian Peterson handshake story

October 14, 2019 by Larry Brown • Comments

Adrian Peterson

Pat McAfee has been entertaining fans with great stories shared on his show, and he told a funny one recently about a pregame handshake with Adrian Peterson.

Peterson is famous for having incredible strength — especially when it comes to handshakes. McAfee was armed with this knowledge when he met Peterson as opposing team captains during a game between the ex-punter’s Indianapolis Colts and Peterson’s Minnesota Vikings. He approached his pregame handshake with Peterson armed with a plan — one that worked perfectly. Things didn’t sit well with Peterson, so the running back requested a second shot that McAfee couldn’t handle.

That’s some great advice by McAfee too: the key to dealing with a tough handshaker is to beat the grip!

If you enjoyed that story, you’ll love McAfee’s story about Peyton Manning and Austin Collie.
