Even tho I will not face the yellow wall tonite, It will be a good nite. hope the boys will tear it up. Me?Picking up a cutie at the airport
— Nicklas Bendtner (@bendtnerb52) December 17, 2014
Whether that meant he was innocently going to meet his son at the airport is unclear, but given Bendtner’s track record you wouldn’t bet on it.

Paddy Power Underwear
Bendtner was fined €100,000 for lowering his shorts to show branded ‘Paddy Power’ underwear, referencing the Irish betting compant, after he scored twice in Denmark’s defeat to Portugal at Euro 2012.
Bendtner said: “It is just a pair of lucky boxer shorts that I used in the first game as well and have used before the tournament.”
