Miami Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel was interviewed Wednesday night while sitting courtside at the Miami Heat vs. Denver Nuggets game. And not surprisingly, the short clip was full of hilarious moments that perfectly highlighted his personality.
The Denver native was asked by Altitude TV’s Vic Lombardi how he’s enjoying Miami, and his answer shouldn’t totally surprise fans. Especially based on how much he talks about the weather during the NFL season.
“It’s warm, it’s humid, it’s wonderful,” McDaniel said.
The interviewer then asked him how surreal it felt to be sitting courtside at an NBA game. The coach replied with some pretty funny answers.
“They’re taller in person,” McDaniel admitted. “I hadn’t even sniffed 15 rows from here, up until two years ago when people like you dressed in wonderful suits like you’re dressed in started interviewing me.”
The interview was full of potential viral moments. Watch it below.
