Deion Sanders recently uploaded a reel on his Instagram where he and Michael Vick talked about the weather as friends meeting after a long time. He captioned, “Sat down with my brother today.” The reel featured Coach Prime proudly showing off his wonderful view of Folsom Field and distant mountains in the background.
The retired NFL QB described the view as a “one in a ten million watch” with the “atmosphere” and the “fans’?appreciation.” Coach Prime admitted that he sleeps there on Friday nights when his team is playing, as he likes to go to sleep on an empty field and wake up to people “trickling in a little bit.” He portrays the experience as “unbelievable.” Just like old friends, the two talked about the snow and the temperature in Colorado and speculated how it’s different from the temperature in Atlanta.
