“He was there with little George and Charlotte, and it was a real pleasure to meet them,” Travis said.
“I wasn’t sure if I should bow to them, take a bow, or just be an American idiot and shake their hand.” (Or say:) ‘What’s up, buddy?’
“We wanted to be polite, especially on this side of the pond,” he continued.
“We got a warning because we honestly don’t know the real (etiquette),” Jason said in response.
“Since we weren’t at a fancy, official royal event, we didn’t have to bow,” the former Philadelphia Eagles center shared. “If it had been an official royal gathering event, then that would have been it.”

“I’ve never seen you respect someone so much,” Travis joked. “You leave your beer ten feet away from you.”
“I didn’t have it in my teeth when I met him,” Jason continued. “They were wonderful people, and that’s what it’s all about. They’re part of a monarchy, I guess it’s hard to be a down-to-earth human being, but they totally showed it off.”
