Aaron Judge towers over Tina Fey at US Open, fans left speechless by height gap

New York Yankees star Aaron Judge attended the US Open with his wife Samantha Bracksieck and was seen seated behind SNL cast member Tina Fey in Arthur Ashe Stadium.

Judge relished his time and in a video, he and his Yankees teammate Keynan Middleton were seen emulating the traditional tennis victory celebration by pumping their fists in the air. Not only Judge but Fey also thoroughly enjoyed the match as she gave a startling reaction.
