Chuba Hubbard is one of the top players for the Carolina Panthers. He is fast, strong, and known for scoring big runs. But this time, people are not talking about football. They are talking about something very different, something from his locker.
During a recent team practice, reporters saw two red snack bags sitting near his jersey. Hubbard was smiling and chatting about them. It made everyone curious. What was inside those bags? What made him so happy? The answer turned out to be something tasty and a little funny- ketchup.
Chuba Hubbard says
ketchup chips
remind him of home
From Sherwood Park, Alberta, Canada, Chuba Hubbard is the Carolina Panthers running back. During training camp on July 25, 2023, he was seen with two bags of red-and-white Old Dutch Ketchup Chips in his locker. Reporters from 3DownNation asked him what they were, and Hubbard happily replied,
'This is my favourite, ketchup chips!'
He explained that ketchup chips are a very popular snack in Canada.
'It's basically just chips with ketchup flavour,' he laughed, holding up the bag. 'You don't get these here, so I had to bring them from home.'
Hubbard said these snacks make him feel close to home even when he's far away.
'It gives me a little piece of Canada,'
he shared. In the locker room, he also asked teammate Phil Hoskins,
'Phil, do you like them ketchup chips?' Phil smiled and said, 'Yeah, those are fire!'
The light-hearted moment went viral online, with fans calling him 'King of Ketchup.'
