Patrick O’Connell’s Gatorade Bath Steals Super Bowl LX

Super Bowl LX was a bit of a snooze fest for fans unless you liked defense and special teams. Heck, I still believe Super Bowl MVP should have been split between Seahawks kicker Jason Myers and punter Michael Dickson.

I still enjoyed the game enough. How can you not enjoy a game where a Montana Grizzly gets crowned Super Bowl Champion?

Patrick O’Connell’s Moment in Super Bowl LX

Former Griz linebacker and Kalispell native Patrick O'Connell had a tackle on special teams in the Super Bowl LX win. I could've sworn that O'Connell had multiple tackles on special teams, but maybe I was watching with my maroon and silver colored shades.

What I can tell you with certainty is that O'Connell delivered one hell of a Gatorade bath.

The Gatorade bath may be the "seminal" moment of Super Bowl LX. On Monday night's SportsCenter with Scott Van Pelt, Kyle Brandt said it might be the greatest Gatorade bath of all time.

"We know this goes back to Parcells on the sideline, and that's the origin story," Brandt said on the Gatorade bath. "I think this was the GOAT Gatorade shower. This is the best one I have ever seen."

"The execution was flawless. It's a fullback and linebacker, a couple of knuckleheads."

Brandt is, of course, talking about our guy Patrick O'Connell, the knucklehead.

I agree with him. I mean, look at this splash.

Was O'Connell the Super Bowl MVP? No, but gosh dang it, he is the GOAT at Super Bowl Gatorade baths, and that's enough for me.

Listen to our conversation with O'Connell from a few weeks ago between the Wildcard and Divisional round of the NFL Playoffs.
