What is Joe Jonas doing on the sideline for Penn State vs. Idaho at Beaver Stadium?
It might not be the White Out Game, but it appears singer Joe Jonas took coach James Franklin up on his April offer to join him on the sideline of a Penn State football game.
Jonas, one of three members of the recently reunited Jonas Brothers singing group, was spotted walking onto the field at Beaver Stadium ahead of Penn State’s home opener against Idaho, chatting with players as they warmed up. He remained on the sideline through the first half of the game, and introduced the Blue Band’s halftime show — a special tribute to boy bands.
With his band making a stop tonight at Hersheypark Stadium for its “Happiness Begins” tour Saturday evening, Jonas hinted earlier on social media he’d be making a stop in Happy Valley first when he replied to a tweet about who’s tailgating at Saturday’s Penn State football game with “Me” and waving hand emoji.
Jonas is no stranger to Happy Valley. The band’s famous members — and their famous wives — made a surprise visit at Champs Downtown in April, where Franklin invited the band to join him on the sidelines at Penn State’s next White Out game.
He’ll be back in town on Wednesday when his band preforms at the Bryce Jordan Center.
