Oh brother.

Eli Manning is a two time Super Bowl Winner, he also married his college sweetheart in 2008 and has four children. One would think one of those things would qualify as the “proudest moment” of Manning’s life, but you would be incorrect. Turns out, the proudest moment of his life is getting the best of his older sibling, Petyon Manning.

Manning explained Thursday that the “proudest moment” of his entire life involved giving brother Peyton Manning an atomic wedgie.

Listen below:

Peyton tried to tackle Eli on a golf trip almost 25 years ago. According to Eli, Peyton got stuck between a bed and a wall, leaving Eli no choice but to act quickly. Eli decided to pull Peyton’s underwear over his head, completing the atomic wedgie.

Eli told the story while making a television appearance during the PGA Championship.

This makes me really jones for some Manningcast.

Can’t wait to see the Manning Bros do their thing come football season.
