After attending the Giants' upset win over the Packers on Monday night, Tommy DeVito’s agent Sean Stellato became a social media sensation for both his sense of fashion as well as a kiss he shared with the quarterback’s dad.
DeVito’s father, Tom, and Stellato were shown on camera celebrating a big moment during New York’s victory at MetLife Stadium.
Stellato spoke with NFL Network’s Peter Schrager on Tuesday to discuss the now viral interaction.
“Tommy Sr., he kissed me first,” said a smiling Stellato. “He broke the ice."
“He kissed me first.”

Prior to the game, the agent’s attire of a pinstripe suit and black fedora hat was a hit among fans. Stellato shared that his admiration for Frank Sinatra and Rocky Balboa inspired his wardrobe.
“I’m a big Frank Sinatra, Rocky Balboa fan,” said Stellato. “I have kind of lived my life as Rocky Balboa—in that passion. That gritty underdog.”
Stellato also admitted he was grateful to share the incredible shining moment with his client’s family.
“That was a special moment with his dad, being able to experience that,” Stellato said. “The energy and doing it in New York. I just wish Sinatra’s ‘New York, New York’ was playing when he kissed me. That would have kind of been the icing on the cake.”
