Remember all the buzz about Falcons linebacker Sean Weatherspoon's fiancée finding one of his old game checks from last year's stint with the Cardinals? Well, it looks like Weatherspoon put some of that extra cash to use.
The former Houston-area high school standout was back at home over the weekend to watch Kobe Bryant's final game against the Rockets. https://twitter.com/SeanWSpoon56/status/718811340039708672
And Weatherspoon had seats just a few rows back behind the basket.
``Let's just say that rainy day check did the job, bro,'' he said with laugh.
Weatherspoon wouldn't reveal exactly how much he paid for the seats, but it was the first time he ever saw Bryant play live.
