Phile Kessel has made plenty of headlines during his time in the NHL, but perhaps none have been as odd as this one. The veteran forward and three-time Stanley Cup Champion was spotted in public recently and has some fans questioning his diet.
A Meal For Champions
Kessel was spotted by a fan recently in a rather unusual setting. The recent Cup Champ was seen at a Chuck-E-Cheese, ordering what we can only assume was a pizza.
The longtime NHLer was all too happy to pose for a photo with this fan and his child, and it looks like Phil and the child might've even bonded over their shared love for pizza!
"***** wasn't phased at all...just wanted to feed him his pizza!"
Celebrating or Calling it Quits?
While Kessel absolutely deserves to celebrate Vegas' massive Stanley Cup victory over Florida, some fans have started to wonder if maybe Kessel is preparing to call it a career. The veteran now has a third ring, and it would seem like a fitting way to go out.
The image of Kessel eating pizza, which most athletes don't do, doesn't really help these rumors either. That being said, Kessel has never really stuck to a healthy diet, which was confirmed by his hotdog incident.
Either way, we love that Phil is getting out and meeting his fans!
