Pickle Fest's 'Steamrolla In Nola!' John McEnroe, Drew Brees, and the LA Mad Drops

 

The elderly man remains remarkably agile, as does John McEnroe. Retired New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, who is also a co-owner of the Los Angeles Mad Drops professional pickleball team, faced off against tennis legend John McEnroe, who is two decades his senior.

This showdown took place at the NOLA Pickle Fest, held on August 12, 2023, at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans. Brees and McEnroe competed in both singles and doubles matches, showcasing their well-known competitive spirit to the delight of the audience.

McEnroe, renowned for his courtside theatrics, particularly stole the show, amusing the crowd with his signature antics and reminding everyone that the event was for charity. The exhibition match was a highlight of the inaugural three-day pickleball tournament, benefiting the Brees Dream Foundation.
