Drew Brees Struck By Lightning While Shooting Commercial for PointsBet
The Twitterverse was lighting up, literally, with reports that former New Orleans Saints quarterback turned commentator Drew Brees had been struck by lightning while shooting a commercial for the online sports betting firm PointsBet.
The incident took place in Catatumbo along Lake Maracaibo in a video that went viral on Friday morning.
A video on Twitter shows Brees in front of a camera preparing to shoot before a flash of light hits and the camera appears to fall on the ground.
It appears to have been staged however.
This story is developing.
