You'll never guess what record Bo Nix just broke with Eli Manning

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix just set another record! But not on the football field. Nix (and his dad, Patrick Nix) teamed up with two-time Super Bowl champion Eli Manning this week to set a Guinness World Record for the most rolls of toilet paper thrown. Yes, that's real. Advertisement It's a tradition at Auburn following a big win to "roll" the trees at Toomer's Corner. So, for an upcoming episode of Eli's Places on ESPN+, the ex-Ole Miss quarterback recruited a pair of former Auburn QBs -- Bo and Patrick -- to help him break a record. They set a record with 7,525 rolls of toilet paper thrown on Tuesday: 'This is special," Eli said of the event, via Jennifer Santiago of The Auburn Plainsman. "This is unbelievable. I know we have a lot of incoming freshmen that are here today. This will be, kind of, your first official rolling of Toomer's Corner as a student here at Auburn, so I'm excited for that." Advertisement Eli, despite playing college football at Ole Miss, was welcomed on campus for the record-breaking day. '(The Alabama governor has) an official plaque, so we're setting the record," he said. "It'll be a great day. This is a thrill for one of the great traditions in college football, the rolling of Toomer's Corner. I know y'all will have many more opportunities to do it this year, so this is just the first of many, especially for you freshmen out there.' Former Auburn quarterback Bo Nix shows Eli Manning the proper technique to throwing roll Toomers during the filming of the ESPN show Eli’s Places at Toomer’s Corner in Auburn, Ala. on Tuesday, July 8, 2025. Nix spent the first three years of his college career at Auburn before transferring to Oregon. He was picked by the Broncos in the first round of last year's NFL draft and had an impressive rookie season. Nix has now helped break another record, albeit an unconventional one.
