Kickball with the Gators: Johnny Townsend, Eddy Pineiro visit Gainesville school

A regular old game of playground kickball got a dash of excitement when Florida’s star kickers joined the show.

Gators punter Johnny Townsend and placekicker Eddy Pineiro unleashed devastating kickball form during a game at Lawton Chiles Elementary School in Gainesville Wednesday.

Townsend posted a short video from the game on Twitter:

Had a great time at Lawton Chiles Middle School playing kickball with the kids! Don't worry, we let them win. @GatorsFB @FloridaGators pic.twitter.com/2TzBX3Zq7b

Though Gridiron Now hasn’t received a ruling from the official scorer, that would appear to be the kickball equivalent of a home run.
