And the whole thing was caught on camera.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_577ao8x88\">&#8220;Assist of the century,&#8221; the Predators captioned the clip on social media, to which Kittle replied, &#8220;Put me in your parlay for assists.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_wvn2gd26s\">Watch that electric moment below:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Assist of the century \ud83e\udd1d <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/gkittle46?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@gkittle46<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/YPK7oT6FyX\">pic.twitter.com\/YPK7oT6FyX<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Nashville Predators (@PredsNHL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PredsNHL\/status\/1880090621718982702?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 17, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_xeqjpda65\">Now, you might be asking yourself: Why is George Kittle\u2014who plays football in California, grew up in Wisconsin, and went to college in Iowa\u2014a Nashville Predators fan? Well, it&#8217;s because Kittle spends his time in Music City during the offseason, and also hosts Tight End University there. Plus, he is friends with Predators left wing Filip Forsberg, though his fandom apparently began before that.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_yi7qtquei\">&#8220;Nashville is a fantastic place,&#8221; the tight end told the 49ers&#8217; media team back in April. &#8220;From the food, to the people, to the activities, to the energy every single day, it&#8217;s a wonderful place to be. I&#8217;m excited for all the Niners fans who are going to come support us at the preseason game [vs. the Tennessee Titans], because you guys can get a little taste of what I get to experience every offseason.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_qkqy8gbuz\">He certainly looks right at home\u2014and clearly brought some of that quintessential Kittle charm with him. Case in point: The Predators defeated the Blackhawks 3\u20132 Thursday night, and we can&#8217;t rule out the possibility that Kittle&#8217;s inspired chug had something to do with it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was a feat of alcohol-induced joy and pure kismet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":26886,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-26885","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
