When the Falcons were up big before halftime of the Super Bowl, Canadian tennis star Eugenie Bouchard thought what a lot of fans were thinking at the time, game over. Little did she know Tom Brady was cool under pressure and talented enough to lead the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history.
One of Bouchard's fans didn't lose hope in Brady and the New England Patriots, and went as far as to tweet her and ask if she would go on a date with him if the Pats found a way to compete the miraculous comeback.
As we now know, the Patriots came back to win the game, and Genie was a women of her word and confirmed she would go on a date with the fan.
Overdrive hosts Bryan Hayes, Jeff O’Neill & Jamie McLennan, along with TSN hockey analyst Ray Ferraro decided to weigh in on the discussion of Eugenie Bouchard’s Super Bowl bet to go on a date with a guy from Twitter. Would they or wouldn't they?
Hats off to Bouchard for being such a good sport and accepting the date with the fan, because we're not sure we would have done the same.
Genie joined Rod Smith on SportsCentre to discuss the plans for the date.
