However, he is also infamous for almost every time taking the road less traveled. When the world was getting vaccinated for Covid 19, Aaron’s anti-vac commentary made the headlines. He then bragged about owning a copy of Atlas Shrugged, which he then admitted that he hasn’t even read.

Moreover, his teammate shocked the world a while ago by revealing that Aaron used to talk to him about 9/11 conspiracy theories. In addition to this, before the 2022 season started, Aaron went on an ayahuasca retreat and just couldn’t stop stating its benefits.

As one can expect, when Rodgers failed to do well during the 2022 season, ayahuasca memes flooded the internet. As it turns out, before taking a decision about his future in the league, Aaron is going on another darkness retreat for a few days.
