WWE SmackDown was at Chase Center last night and San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle was in attendance with several of his teammates, including quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, who was seated right next to him.
The others were tight end Garrett Celek, and wide receivers Dante Pettis and Trent Taylor, but it was the Pro Bowl tight end who stole the show.

Fans were even treated to a Kittle backstage interview, during which the Niners tight end was asked about his recent interaction with The Rock on Twitter, his wrestling fandom, and the 49ers being 3-0.
Our own Peter Panacy reported on Monday about the interaction between Kittle and The Rock on Twitter. Kittle, who gave his best impression of the former wrestling superstar turned actor, received a reply from his idol, who referred to Kittle as "The People's Tight End."
Needless to say, Kittle was pretty excited about that.
