Whoops! NFL Star JJ Watt Breaks Kid's Bike Seat in Green Bay

It’s an annual tradition at the Green Bay Packers’ summer training camp: the big men of the NFL riding young fans’ little bikes at Lambeau Field.

Houston Texans defensive end JJ Watt, a Wisconsin native, says he’s dreamed of taking part since he was a kid. He got his chance Monday with the Texans in town, but things didn’t quite work out.

Footage tweeted by Chris Stoerner shows Watt attempting to cycle a young football fan’s bike. Clearly, Watt’s six-foot, five-inch frame was too much for the bike to handle as the seat quickly collapsed under his weight. “Not big man proof,” concludes Watt, as he hoists the bike above his head and continues on.

Watt has since bought the boy a new bike, CNN said.
