Published:
Appalachian State quarterback Chase Brice is not just a great quarterback. He’s also an All-American personality away from the gridiron.
Following the 32-28 win over Troy Saturday in front of a packed Kidd Brewer Stadium, Brice elected to celebrate as the people’s champ. Not only did he crash the party with Mountaineer players, but he also was seen helping fans storm the field and extending a hand to those looking to storm the field.
Here’s a video of the epic moment down below.
