Los Angeles (AFP) - Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers used a private jet to escape Peru with just 15 minutes to spare before the airport was locked down due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Rodgers on Friday described scenes of panic and fear as he recounted his hasty exit along with three others from the South American country.
"It was absolute pendemonium at the airport," Rogers told the Pat McAfee podcast show.
Rodgers said the main reason they got out in time was because they had a private plane.
"When we rolled up to the airport at like seven in the morning, it was wall-to-wall people and you couldn't move," Rodgers said.
