Photo Emerges of Helpful Pedestrian Warning Brett Favre He's About to Be Hit by Driverless Tesla

Almost every sports fan has run into a professional athlete at least once in their lifetime.

Well, one individual actually almost ran into Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre this week. Literally.

Reddit user "Gray_Um" shared a story to the millions of other users on the site about a time he recently met Favre. As he left the grocery store one day, the man called upon his Tesla car with its "Summon" feature, which commands the vehicle to drive up to the owner.

While the car was driving up to the front of the store (driverless, by the way), a man stepped in front of the car. The reddit user gave him a heads up that there was no driver in the car, which wouldn't brake. That man in danger turned out to be...Brett Favre himself.

The story only gets better.

Purportedly, Favre looked over to the Reddit user, and jokingly said, "Thank goodness, I thought maybe I had been hit in the head too much," before departing to his truck.

This is a tale that "Gray_Um" will tell his children, grandchildren, and possibly great-grandchildren.

"Yeah, I almost hit Green Bay Packers legend Brett Favre with my driverless Tesla." No one else can ever say that in their lifetime.
