Steven Gerrard's In-N-Out order proves he's so L.A. now
The LA Galaxy hosted a live Facebook Q&A with Steven Gerrard on Thursday night, and the former England and Liverpool captain entertained fans' questions, ranging from the best players he's faced in MLS to the transition from living in rainy Merseyside to always sunny California.
Naturally, the discussion on life in LA turned to the one thing that really matters to West Coasters: Gerrard's honest opinion on In-N-Out burger. Critically important stuff, we know.
When asked if he had been to the iconic burger joint and how it was, Gerrard deadpanned "10 out of 10."
"I used to like McDonalds, maybe once every couple of months as a treat," Gerrard said, "but McDonalds has been packed up and I'm an In-N-Out guy now. I'm guilty. I've been back ... on quite a few occasions. It's amazing."
Spoken like a true L.A. veteran! So... what 'cha get, Stevie G?
"I went 'Animal Style.' I was told if you're doing it you have to go Animal Style."
Did you get a shake?
"Yeah I did. Mmmm, the strawberry one," Gerrard says, breaking into a sheepish smile.
Solid! How about fries?
"Yeah, I went animal style with the bacon on the fries. Intense!"
Check that box, too.
What a fantastic order. That's how you capture the hearts of Los Angelenos. Gerrard did admit he hasn't tried dipping his fries in the shakes yet, but hey, to each their own. At least he's got all the basics right.
Later in the Q&A, Gerrard tabbed Sebastian Giovinco and Darlington Nagbe as the top two players he's faced in MLS so far. Maybe he can bring them out for a Double Double next time they're in LA? (De Jong can pay for Nagbe!) Check out that and more from Gerrard below:
