Vikings QB Christian Ponder spent wedding night at Arby's

You might expect an NFL quarterback's wedding to be a pretty big deal - but for Christian Ponder, it was anything but.  

In a recent interview with Bob Sansevere of the Pioneer Press, Ponder's wife Samantha spoke about the couple's nonchalant wedding. 

"When we got married, he picked me up at the airport and I was wearing jeans and a sweatshirt and a hat. We drove the 20 minutes to Hudson or whatever it was, walked in, got married. Then we went and ate Arby's as our wedding meal. We get way more attention than we ever deserve or need or want, because of our jobs. I don't need a day that's all about me."
