Sean Payton is under fire for his role in the Saints’ “bounty” program, but at least he has “Parrotheads” behind him.

While Saints fans protested the coach’s season-long suspension Sunday, Jimmy Buffett, wearing a “Free Sean Payton” T-shirt, also threw his support behind the coach, who accepted an invitation on stage at the New Orleans show to play the bongos (the word “play” being used loosely here).

Judging from the above video, there’s no question Payton is familiar with Buffett’s work. We’re just thankful they kept him away from doing any real damage on the steel drums.

But if you’re going to go on stage with Jimmy Buffett, the least you could do is actually make it look like you’re enjoying yourself.
