It may seem odd that the a guy so closely associated with "Donkey Sauce" would be welcome on the same sideline as healthy eating guru Tom Brady, but Guy Fieri has a history with the Patriots. He's been part of Brady's Best Buddies foundation. He also once reviewed pizza with wide receiver Julian Edelman, who later gave his gloves from his iconic Super Bowl LI catch to Fieri's son.
While Fieri loves hanging with the Pats, they're still not his No. 1 team. He tweeted #silverandblack during the game, affirming his allegiance to the Oakland Raiders.
