The Green Bay Packers’ win against the Chicago Bears gave them a new sense of victory which got lost in the preseason and Week 1 games. A firm victory of 27-10 against them invoked the men in green and yellow to come up with a creative touchdown celebration. The team poured fictitious tea and then they acted to pass out. It was the infamous ayahuasca tea that they mockingly drank. However, Aaron Rodgers made sure to keep himself in utter clarity while talking about the psychedelic.

In the off-season, the reigning MVP of the Green Bay Packers made several visits to shows and podcasts. One of the most famous appearances was on Aubrey Marcus’ podcast. The reason simply is, Aaron Rodgers accepted he delved into the life of a hippie. A-Rod confessed to drinking ayahuasca tea. DMT, a hallucinogen, is infused in the ayahuasca. The effect is that a person feels mellow and for Rodgers; he experienced otherworldly joy.

The tea helped Rodgers improve his relationship with himself and with others around him. He could feel “unconditional love.” And that is what he wanted to clear out on the Pat McAfee podcast where he’s a weekly guest. The touchdown celebration involved wide receiver Allen Lazard, who, with the pigskin, poured fictitious tea for his teammates. After they pretended to drink the tea, they fell down like dominos. While Rodgers stood there, arms stretched out and face towards the sky. He looked like he was going Super Saiyan.

This is the moment where the QB wants to explain something important to everybody. He said on the podcast, “I don’t want to send the wrong message, you know this. You’re not standing up drinking, having this Jesus revival, slaying in the spirit. It’s not like that. You don’t have some immediate pass out into oblivion.

Aaron Rogers is an advocate for the safe use of ayahuasca

In the podcast, the Super Bowl-winning quarterback urges people to not label ayahuasca as a drug. He clears out that ayahuasca is a plant.

And can’t be called a drug because that’s a “manipulative word.”

Ayahuasca is not a drug,” Rodgers unequivocally said. “It has properties in it that have hallucinogenic abilities. But it’s not a drug. We’re talking about plants here.”
