Antonio Brown mysteriously asks to be called 'Ronald'
Pittsburgh Steelers wideout Antonio Brown is always entertaining.
The Pro Bowl receiver loves the spotlight, whether through fabulous grabs, controversial cleats or touchdown dances.
On Friday, Brown added another dimension to his game: alter ego.
During an interview session, Brown told reporters he would like to be referred to as "Ronald."
Q: What’s the whole Ronald thing?
A: I can’t tell you. It’s top secret. It’s my new name — Ronald. From now on call me Ronald. I can’t (explain). It’s top secret. From now on, address me as Ronald.
One theory is Brown will pay tribute to Jim Delligatti, the inventor of the Big Mac who owned franchises in the Pittsburgh area, with some sort of Ronald McDonald custom cleats. Delligatti, a Pennsylvanian, passed away this week at the age of 98.
