Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was courtside watching the Bucks play the Raptors in Game 5 of the NBA's Eastern Conference finals when he found himself in a beer-drinking competition with a teammate.
It started when Green Bay offensive lineman David Bakhtiari was shown on the Jumbotron at Milwaukee's Fiserv Forum effortlessly chugging two beers within 10 seconds. Bakhtiari then stood up and began pointing at someone across the court.

The Jumbotron cut to Rodgers with a chyron that read "'Game of Thrones' extra & NFL MVP" in reference to his recent cameo on the popular TV show. (There was no reference to Rodgers being a part owner of the Bucks.) Rodgers accepted the challenge, raised his cup and attempted to chug his beer, albeit much slower. Rodgers was unable to finish. The Jumbotron cut back to Bakhtiari, who easily downed another beer.

For those of you scoring at home, that was three beers for Bakhtiari and less than one for Rodgers.
Rodgers took the L, but he also offered his own challenge:
Make it scotch next time @DavidBakhtiari #bucks

UPDATE: Brewers MVP outfielder Christian Yelich beat Rodgers, too, although Rodgers didn't give him full credit:
