Coronabro Peter King, who famously tweeted “we do not have the will as a country to make the relatively tiny sacrifices (masks, no huge gatherings) to make this pandemic go away,” happens to be in the press box at Raymond James Stadium covering Super Bowl LV where 22,000 people will be on hand.
“I could see the NFL, if and when fans are allowed to come to games, advising anyone over 70 to not come,” the 63-year-old King said in May. “I could see alcohol being banned at games for the year. (Meaning, theoretically, fewer trips to crowded restrooms through crowded concourses by patrons.)”
It turns out, alcohol will be served and 70-year-olds are allowed to attend today’s game in Tampa.

As for King attending a Super Bowl held in Florida, let’s not forget what he had to say about Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and the job he has done handling the pandemic in his state.
“I would absolutely not say that Ron DeSantis did a good job. He was a day late and $40 short,” King told OutKick founder Clay Travis during an interview in April. “I believe what’s been most helpful is people staying home,” Peter added later during the discussion.
It’s good to have Peter back out amongst society and seemingly back to living his life. Maybe King got the vaccine and is feeling ballsy.
So @GovRonDeSantis just dunked all over @peter_king again by inviting all pro sports teams to come play in Florida. You’ll recall that King said DeSantis had done an awful job on @outkick. Enjoy: pic.twitter.com/ndiMdo4soT

Over the nose, Peter! You trying to die?
Lol
Unless he’s discussing anything NFL related, I will never take him seriously ever again.
How would you like this pussy in a fox hole next to ya he doesn’t know what real fear is obviously
Actually King , like most low IQ leftist “journalists “ was dead wrong. Staying at home allowed the virus to spread rapidly inside confined spaces.
I’m sure the flyover triggered him.
So courageous. He was one of the continuously well paid lefty sports journalists wagging their finger at people regarding safety as some were forced to sit home and lose their livelihoods. He’s the the textbook definition of non-essential.
Perfect !!!
National sports writers are the worst. Who reads this guy anyway? The most attention he got all year was when he stepped in the ring with Clay.
The original liberal hypocrite sportswriter…the blazed the trail
It can’t be the a coincidence the guys with the most punchable face also have the worst takes.
Amen.
Can we keep him behind the paywall built around Sports Illustrated?
Completely irrelevant in every way; why give King any pub? He’s a doofus (at best.)
Fat faced sissy boy. He and Wilbon can kiss each other’s asses. Two left wing dopes.
The hypocrite should stick to kissing ass of the players he covers. Don’t need his uninformed opinion on something he knows nothing about. He probably thinks we can get rid of Influenza by wearing masks and social distancing. If that’s the way you want to live, then by all means you have that right. But don’t force others to live as cowards.
Hypocrites gonna hypocrite.
Sheesh. To think I used to follow this douche.
He needs to be invited back on the show and say how wrong he was!
King’s biggest problem is what he swallows while on all fours at the local bathhouse…
