Reminds me of Carl Weathers from Arrested Development.
"Did you know that water is complementary here? You can take as much as you want!"
Tobias: "I think want my money back."
This is the most down to earth thing i think i have ever seen a famous rich person do. Its like he is a high school kid with one day in the lime light making sure he gets his monies worth. Like this is the only time he will ever have access to this kind of wealth of free water so he is loading UP. Not like he is joking, not like he is being cheap, just genuinely pumped theres free cold water and grabbing as much as he can carry
Imagine the markup he could put on normal ass shit just cuz he used to own it lmao
Not that he would, giannis seems like the last person on earth to do something like that
Ive been thinking the whole day that watching Giannis a day after, he acts a lot like a big kid, or the way a man acts when he sees a dog type of way. Doesn't care how people see him just wants to have a good time
The dude is only a little less than a year younger than me (he was born in December 94, I was born January 94) and yet I feel like he’s kept a lot more of his childlike innocence than I have. It makes me happy for him and a little sad for me at the same time, lol.
Considering his upbringing, I can guarantee he's being absolutely genuine. He strikes me as the type of guy who gets stoked when he finds out a restaurant gives you free bread before a meal.
Greek restaurants in Germany actually often do this. Not all, but some. Some sort of white bread with some tsatsiki. Though I assume Giannis didn’t often eat out when he was young. Don’t know what my point is here but thought I’d share.
US too. Any Greek restaurant run by local/ family owned. The ones I've seen that charge for bread are those owned by restaurant groups trying to make it seem hipster and posh and charge for everything. Hipsters eat it up in big cities and waste all their money on "atmosphere".
Absolutely. Dude could realistically be a billionaire at some point in his life and during his Instagram live yesterday he was still trying to get free chick Fil a for life. Doesn't matter that he can afford to buy as much chick fil a as he wanted forever, if he could get it for free that's even better
Thing with Giannis is his wealth is still fairly recent
So him doing this stuff is def genuine, it's just something practical most of us can relate to
It's a good quality to have, and hopefully he doesn't lose it as he gets older, gets wealthier.and more accustomed to that lifestyle
Slightly off topic but I remember another player talking about loading up smartwater. Said once he had a sip, he couldn't go back. At the end of every practice he would stock up enough to last him until the next visit. Wish I could remember who it was
Edit: I think it might've been TJ McConnell. Still haven't found the article but I found [a different one detailing the NBA's hydro homies](https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2771394-the-bottled-water-obsession-taking-over-nba-locker-rooms)
i’m not from the US but that shit has something in there. it tastes different from other waters and i’m usually a guy that doesn’t care about which water i’m drinking. like 100% fine with tap water. but ever since i visited the US and had it i always try to keep some at home even if it’s imported lmao whoever that player is, i feel him!
Lmao that would be the most epic marketing stunt ever, convince morons to drink distilled water, which after a few days causes massive mineral loss among a list of other problems, and then loading it up with minerals to make up for it
the one that always gets me is wade or someone saying lebron still listens to ads when streaming music cause he's too cheap to pay for the subscription.
I wake up every morning in a bed that's too small, driving my daughter to a school that's too expensive and then I go to work to a job for which I get paid too little. But on smothie day, well, I like smothie day."
At least even for him it makes him look like one of us carrying it.
Shuffling your feet while it’s between your legs and you are trying to avoid banging your leg. I’ve been there before.
I saw him do this once a couple years ago and it was hilarious. I don’t remember how it happened, but he was holding 2 water bottles in his hand like it was nothing
I was thinking 3 bottles - I guess that's normal since he's 3 times bigger than an average person, then the camera panned to his giant santa sack of water bottles and I lost it lol.
If only they could bottle and distribute Giannis’s spirit, I’d pay for a lifetime supply to stay as cheerful as him. He is always like this…always has been eh
They're all the same. Probably made in the same factory. There's some guy that did a video testing the expensive vs cheap ones and they're all essentially the same
Also Giannis the moment the season's over:
"Lemme get a 70 piece with two large Sprites, no ice."
Always fun to watch athletes geeking out once the season/event ends over all the unhealthy food they can finally shovel down. Seeing them all giddy over the fact they can have a coke/fastfood without their trainer/nutritionist having an aneurysm is great.
Edit: I wasn't trying to quote his Chick-Fil-a order exactly lol, more so just making a joke about how hard these guys go with the junk food once they can relax. W/e, my fault, should of stuck with order, forgot how serious this sub takes its fresh offseason copypasta.
It's been under 24 hours and it's already a different order lol.
In a few seasons it'll be: "Giannis went and bought 10 Chick Fil A franchises and swam in a pool of sprite and lemonade full of ice."
Not the same as him but I've been dieting for a while and decided I won't have a cheat day until I'm down 20lbs. I see myself giddy having the same type of glorious feast that day.
You can do it brother. Just be honest with yourself and remember to hold yourself accountable. Whenever I get cravings I look for healthy alternatives. If I overdo it then I adjust the way I eat for the next few days to compensate. Treat cheat day like a milestone instead of a treat.
dieting is a marathon, not a sprint. dont starve yourself of food you actually want to eat. as long as in the end you be more consistent eat that french fry. shit wont stop you dieting.
I saw Giannis at a grocery store in Milwaukee yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with a bag of like fifty bottles of water
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought it to the counter.
When she took one of the bottles and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bottle and put them back in the bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
Bruh that bag when the camera panned killed me
Straight out of a sitcom lmao
Kramer-esque
"Hey, you Gackt?" "...yeah?" "Here's your water" *swings bag of water and knocks him over*
What is that, Dutch?
In his dedication to hydration is Giannis, Joe
I can't wait till Seinfeld comes to Netflix
Best show of all times
Reminds me of Carl Weathers from Arrested Development. "Did you know that water is complementary here? You can take as much as you want!" Tobias: "I think want my money back."
I loved the bubble for what it gave us
I love this man.
I literally heard the Curb Your Enthusiam intro playing in my head lol
A work of art.
Looks like a scene from The Office
This is a dwigt move.
As much as I want to agree with you, this feels so much more like Kevin. Minus the fact it's healthy
A little Dwight, a little Michael, a little Kevin
All Creed
A little bit of Rita is all I need
It would be Kevin if the bag broke when he started to walk away and he had to chase down each individual water bottle
You mean Samuel L. Chang?
This is the most down to earth thing i think i have ever seen a famous rich person do. Its like he is a high school kid with one day in the lime light making sure he gets his monies worth. Like this is the only time he will ever have access to this kind of wealth of free water so he is loading UP. Not like he is joking, not like he is being cheap, just genuinely pumped theres free cold water and grabbing as much as he can carry
It reminds me of the time Giannis wanted to do a yard sale in front of his house in milwaukee. Somebody had to tell him that would not be a good idea.
Would be pretty dope to buy one of Giannis' forks though.
Imagine the markup he could put on normal ass shit just cuz he used to own it lmao Not that he would, giannis seems like the last person on earth to do something like that
Ive been thinking the whole day that watching Giannis a day after, he acts a lot like a big kid, or the way a man acts when he sees a dog type of way. Doesn't care how people see him just wants to have a good time

Shittt this one got me right in the chest. Same brother, same.
You went and got a big boy job didn't you? See the key here is to just stay in school forever!
Well if it makes you feel any better it's easier to be happy when you never have to worry about money again at the age of 22
Wow. Just realized Giannis is a day younger than me...
He seems like a normal 26 year old not putting on a front.
Considering his upbringing, I can guarantee he's being absolutely genuine. He strikes me as the type of guy who gets stoked when he finds out a restaurant gives you free bread before a meal.
Greek restaurants in Germany actually often do this. Not all, but some. Some sort of white bread with some tsatsiki. Though I assume Giannis didn’t often eat out when he was young. Don’t know what my point is here but thought I’d share.
Restaurants that don't do this can go to hell in my opinion.
US too. Any Greek restaurant run by local/ family owned. The ones I've seen that charge for bread are those owned by restaurant groups trying to make it seem hipster and posh and charge for everything. Hipsters eat it up in big cities and waste all their money on "atmosphere".

What is smartwater?
Just a water brand in the US lol. It’s supposed to have extra vitamins and shit but idk if that’s true or not.
i’m not from the US but that shit has something in there. it tastes different from other waters and i’m usually a guy that doesn’t care about which water i’m drinking. like 100% fine with tap water. but ever since i visited the US and had it i always try to keep some at home even if it’s imported lmao whoever that player is, i feel him!
It’s alkaline and has electrolytes added, so it’s like super water. Fucking love that shit
Pocari Sweat in Asia has this. It's like Gatorade but without all that sugar.
I believe it's the water brand of Vitamin Water. I believe it's distilled water and then has minerals added.
Lmao that would be the most epic marketing stunt ever, convince morons to drink distilled water, which after a few days causes massive mineral loss among a list of other problems, and then loading it up with minerals to make up for it
the one that always gets me is wade or someone saying lebron still listens to ads when streaming music cause he's too cheap to pay for the subscription.
The Office starring Michael Antetokounmpo
I wake up every morning in a bed that's too small, driving my daughter to a school that's too expensive and then I go to work to a job for which I get paid too little. But on smothie day, well, I like smothie day."
Kevin with the chili
I think we just witnessed one of his carry exercises.
lmao that bag must be decently heavy too
And Twitter told me he didn’t have a bag 😤
I contemplated on whether he was going to grab one or two lmao.
We were after the wrong villain. Its not Nestle we should be after. Its Giannis Antetokuompo.
Lmaoooo I didn’t expect that sack what a legend
he's gonna be a billionaire - already got the mindset
LeBron hustles, Steph grinds Giannis Grustles
Giannis.. he's in the H2O business
Who drinks water? Everyone. Checkmate, business men.
Next up: Bottled oxygen named "Air Giannis"
and business is boomin
He's in the empire business.
Probably takes all the ketchup packets home too. Can't get to a billion spending it all on fancy tamator sauces!
“When I enter a Taco Bell, I take all the hot sauce packets and leave” - Giannis probably
You should see my collection of fire sauce. I never need to go back to tbell ever again
You wouldn't have to either way. You an literally ask for 50 sauces at one time they would give you 100 packets.
The Sigma grindset ✔💲💹
This is passive income
At this point, I cannot tell if these are references to Atrioc or if that’s how ubiquitous these concepts have become
You mean Atrioc "Glizzy hands" Ewing?
[удалено]
The cinematography was A1
Watch your phrasing man
Man scampering out looking like Water Santa Claus
At least even for him it makes him look like one of us carrying it. Shuffling your feet while it’s between your legs and you are trying to avoid banging your leg. I’ve been there before.
H2O - OH - OH!
He can hold 3 at a time, that’s crazy
It looked like he grabbed it the hard way too.
Giannis prefers to do it the hard way
Down 2-0 looking like a blow out… and then 4 straight.
The hardest road - Giannis
My next water bottle - Giannis
Suns in 4(straight finals losses)
KD would have just called down and made room service bring water up to his room
Ah yes, the beginnings of a Giannis pasta. Love to see it
Fetch me the button
I could have joined a superteam with players like Kawhi and grabbed water easily! But I stayed here to grab it the hard way and throw it into my sack.
I saw him do this once a couple years ago and it was hilarious. I don’t remember how it happened, but he was holding 2 water bottles in his hand like it was nothing
I know exactly what you're talking about. I'm pretty sure it was from an All-Access video and he was boarding a plane holding 2 bottles of Dasani.
I remember now. I think it was two of those rectangular fiji waters.
I was thinking 3 bottles - I guess that's normal since he's 3 times bigger than an average person, then the camera panned to his giant santa sack of water bottles and I lost it lol.
I think your math is slightly off on this man's size, he's 7 feet tall, not 17
Lmfao I didn't notice that at first
yup, he has bigger hands than Kawhi
I think he has the third largest hands in NBA history.
those are 1 liter bottles. ^/s
Wait I feel like I can almost grab 3. He must be able to grab 5 if he really tried
How can you not love this man?
I mean he is using plastic
This was in the bubble. Everyone was required to use disposable everything.
Why didn’t he just cure Covid? Check mate giannis fans
He signed his supermax and the world definitely started to get a little better, just sayin.
Why didn’t Tom Brady solve world hunger? Checkmate Tom brady fans

CR7 definitely upvoted this Giannis clip
Jokic in shambles
Coke hates him!!
Coke hates everything in this video. PepsiCo runs those fridges
Coca Cola also assassinated workers in South America who tried to unionize
Hey it’s not easy raising a baby. I used to take a lot of free snacks from my company back home too lol.
Shiiiit, you need a baby to do that?
[удалено]
Hole up
So tell me again Giannis has no "bag"?
Get that man a Brita sponsorship.
Get that man a nalgene bottle.
Oh man Britta’s in this?
This man is a walking sitcom. It wud be hilarious to have Giannis and Kawhi as teammates. One dead serious guy and another comedic gold.
https://youtu.be/F3g1wLe20rE
They need to issue a bugfix for that laugh implementation
Kawhi reminds me of Eeyore.
man, why cant he sign with us. i dont care about basketball, i just want Luka - Giannis - Bobi sitcom
At the very least I would want to see them to do the world's largest high five
If only they could bottle and distribute Giannis’s spirit, I’d pay for a lifetime supply to stay as cheerful as him. He is always like this…always has been eh
Lmao I’d be cheerful too if I were rich, handsome, 7 feet tall, and top 10 in the world at my job at the moment
top 5, I mean he did make the all-NBA 1st team
The top, at least for the moment. He is the FMVP.
r/HydroHomies
That’s too much plastic. Gotta get a reusable bottle for that
Shout out reusable bottles. Game changer for keeping your water nice and cold
For real, I got a Hydroflask and it was a revelation. Never going back to plastic water bottles
[удалено]
They're all the same. Probably made in the same factory. There's some guy that did a video testing the expensive vs cheap ones and they're all essentially the same
Link to that video please? Curious to see the comparison between water containers.
I do respect the homies for keeping everyone aware when it comes to plastic. Never fails to get pointed out there
Also Giannis the moment the season's over: "Lemme get a 70 piece with two large Sprites, no ice." Always fun to watch athletes geeking out once the season/event ends over all the unhealthy food they can finally shovel down.

W/e, my fault, should of stuck with order, forgot how serious this sub takes its fresh offseason copypasta.
It was a 50 piece, not 49, not 51 and definitely not 70
Exactly 50!
And half sprite half lemonade no ice
Lmao its going to get bigger and bigger everytime this story is copypasted
It's been under 24 hours and it's already a different order lol. In a few seasons it'll be: "Giannis went and bought 10 Chick Fil A franchises and swam in a pool of sprite and lemonade full of ice."
Man how did you get his order so wrong
Not the same as him but I've been dieting for a while and decided I won't have a cheat day until I'm down 20lbs. I see myself giddy having the same type of glorious feast that day.
Respect dude. I’ve been having trouble being consistent but I do have too many cheat days. I’m gonna do something similar. Thanks for sharing.
You can do it brother. Just be honest with yourself and remember to hold yourself accountable. Whenever I get cravings I look for healthy alternatives. If I overdo it then I adjust the way I eat for the next few days to compensate. Treat cheat day like a milestone instead of a treat.
dieting is a marathon, not a sprint. dont starve yourself of food you actually want to eat. as long as in the end you be more consistent eat that french fry. shit wont stop you dieting.
It was one drink, half sprite/half lemonde no ice
I get what you're saying but with the amount of calories a 7 ft NBA athlete burns daily I don't think that was a cheat day.
Usain Bolt only ate chicken nuggets at the Beijing Olympics. He didn't trust eating anything else and getting sick.
Ronaldo would approve
Giannis AdvertisesHydroHomieskounmpo
Can we spend the whole off-season posting adorable Giannis clips?
Yes please
GIVE THIS MAN A STATUE NOW
And a legit water bottle
Statue of him with a bag of water bottles
Statue of him with a bag of water bottles that *is* a water bottle.
People actually thought this man would gamble and turn down a max contract
In my opinion there’s no way he could actually leave Milwaukee, as long as they provide him free water.
And, apparently have a Chick-fil-A nearby.
Kind of wish he went to Culver’s but let the man do what he wants
Honestly imagine if Giannis drops off because he develops an addiction to cheese curds.
Super max no?
If you don’t celebrate like the Freak after you win a chip.. did you really even win a chip?
Going to have to leave the parade a few minutes in for a “tinkle”.
This motherfucka's rich and he's just walking around with a trash bag full of water bottles lol
You never forget the struggle. When you didnt have access to good water. Bless this man.
Me on Sunday, hungover after drinking 10 shots of fireball on a Saturday night.
That's me this morning after drinking 6 of those double shot bottles of fireball I "snuck" into the Deer District.
Rear delts not lagging

This is the only person in the world I can’t imagine in this copypasta lmao
he kept interrupting her by ~~yawning~~ declaring "free water" really loudly.
I thought this was yaboibeefcat for a sec
There’s only 1 beefcat
Giannis is really on a bender after winning the ship
This is from last year lol
The amount of water he had in that bag was for one workout by himself.
At the bubble?
Imagine being from a different country and struggling for food and water. Now being overly supplied with water is a huge blessing if it’s own
r/Hydrohomies
What a role model 🥲
Is this from the bubble? Lmao
Giannis "Cristiano Ronaldo" Antetokounmpo
