Jimmy Fallon avoids foul ball, chugs beer at Yankees’ game

Given that they play in New York, the Yankees tend to draw a fair amount of celebrity fans. That was the case Thursday, as “The Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon sat in the first row as the Yankees took on the Toronto Blue Jays.

While the Yankees lost the game 6-3, Fallon seemed to have a good time. He not only saw Alex Rodriguez’s first home run since September 2013, but he also got a chance to play to the fans late in the contest.

In the seventh inning, Fallon can be seen avoiding a foul ball off the bat of Jacoby Ellsbury. Fallon loses his Yankees’ cap during the commotion. Following the play, Fallon took an opportunity to bow to the fans in the stadium. He then took a sip of his beer, toasting his fellow New Yorkers.

That sip may have turned into more later. We’re unsure of when this video was taken, but here’s Fallon chugging down the rest of his tasty beverage.

Cheers to you, Jimmy Fallon. You were able to transport yourself back to your college years by chugging a beer, and that may have inspired A-Rod to take a trip back in time with his home run.

Jimmy Fallon should attend every Yankees’ game, basically.
