In a new advertising bit, noted Skittles evangelist Marshawn Lynch visits a retirement community to share his love for the candy company's new "Sweet Heat" flavor with the geriatric crowd.

The video, shared by ESPN's Darren Rovell, shows the Raiders running back playfully discussing Sweet Heat Skittles with several seniors who are trying the candy for the first time. He also power-walks with a group of retirees, tools around in a Skittles-branded golf cart, does a little cardio-dancing and attempts to play pickleball.

"This is the first time I've ever heard of this game," he says.
