Steve Gleason Jokingly Calls Out Sean Payton After His Biopic Premiere, Crowd Roars In Laughter

Former New Orleans Saints safety/special teamer Steve Gleason called out his former head coach Sean Payton when he got emotional following the premiere of Gleason's biopic documentary.

Gleason, known worldwide for his open battle with ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease), has helped raise millions for ALS research and awareness.

His strong will and perseverance has inspired millions.

Last night in New Orleans, the documentary Gleason premiered, documenting the intimate day to day details of Gleason's life and the caretaking involved in it.

Many of Gleason's former teammates and coaches were in attendance.

Payton briefly choked up on stage while addressing the audience. Gleason, who was on stage with his family and a few former teammates, promptly called Payton, "a p*$$y".

The audience reportedly erupted in laughter.

As Gleason reminds us everyday, ALS slowly debilitates the body, but doesn't effect the mind. Gleason's whit is as sharp as ever.
