Conor McGregor is apparently learning about a new type of football.
Conor McGregor apparently isn’t all that down in the dumps about his UFC 229 loss to Khabib Nurmagomedov. The Notorious One popped up at AT&T Stadium today along with Dillon Danis and others, as a guest of Jerry Jones, for the Dallas Cowboys vs. Jacksonville Jaguars game.
As you can see in the videos below, Conor goofed around with Jones for a bit, played some catch on the field, and even joined the Cowboys in their pre-game scrum:

I’m surprised he didn’t have any Proper 12 with him, but you can’t promote your products all the time I guess.
McGregor isn’t a complete stranger to American football, having attended the Super Bowl in Arizona in 2015 at the UFC’s behest. As for the Cowboys, they could use the boost – they’re 2-3 so far this season going into today’s game, but they’re one of the lowest scoring teams in the league.
McGregor will next be in the news around October 24th, when the Nevada State Athletic Commission announces their verdict on his actions in the cage after UFC 229, which involved him scuffling with some of Khabib’s entourage.
