T.J. Yates watches Super Bowl aboard USS Bush

Posted Feb 8, 2013
Texans quarterback T.J. Yates was out of town for Super Bowl Sunday, but it was no ordinary vacation. Yates spent last weekend aboard the USS George H.W. Bush, a Nimitz-class supercarrier of the United States Navy, in the Atlantic Ocean between Key West and Cuba. He and several current and former Green Bay Packers got an expansive tour of the 1,092-foot long, 102,000-ton ship, and watched the Super Bowl in a large hangar bay with members of its crew.
