During this week’s ManningCast, Peyton and Eli Manning witnessed something truly out of the ordinary.
Coming back from a commercial break, the camera zoomed in on someone in the stands at a freezing Lambeau Field dressed in a Gumby costume chugging a beverage through one of their Gumby eyeholes.
Look, for a football game with glacial pacing and even colder temperatures, some random person in a Gumby costume drinking a cold one through one of their eyes was about as exciting as it was going to get.
Unless Los Angeles Rams quarterback Baker Mayfield wanted to throw in more theatrics or Green Bay Packers Aaron Rodgers had a wild throw in him, the Mannings reacting to a guy in a Gumby costume ruled the day.

Well, that was certainly one way to make a boring game much more interesting, if only for a few seconds.
If somebody catches a guy in a Pokey costume doing a Buffalo body slam into a burning table anytime soon, be sure to let us know.
