One supremely happy Cereprods team and one legendary NFL superstar. 

One supremely happy Cereprods team and one legendary NFL superstar. 

Last night the Cereprods team were lucky enough to be invited to meet the mythical and legendary winner of 3, that's THREE Superbowl's, Jerry Rice, during his tour of China to promote the National Football League. Spirits were high as we relived some of Jerry's career and amazing feats in the name of sports.

Held at Beijing's Kerry Center, we had the chance to interview Mr. Rice before the event and discussed the Chinese tour so far, Jerry's life after the big game and, of course, those dancin' shoes.

Recorded as part of the first episode of our new show: Sporting Season: China Edition, watch this space for updates and the interview itself.

Why is Jerry the best? Well, aside from being the greatest American footballer to ever don a jersey, because it is the fans that have always been #1 in his eyes. True legend.
