Movie theater mozzarella sticks made Broncos pass rusher Von Miller sick

Broncos pass rusher Von Miller missed practice Wednesday with an illness and now we know why.

Broncos pass rusher Von Miller missed practice Wednesday with an illness and now we know why: junk food made him sick.

Miller came to the facility on Wednesday but went home early because he wasn’t feeling well. It turns out his trip to see Star Wars the night before was to blame. 

Von Miller's illness was from mozzarella sticks he ate at a movie theater on Tues. "The Force struck back," he said.

Miller isn’t blaming the food, though. He thinks he got sick because he decided to ease off his diet and his body couldn’t handle the greasy food.

Von Miller's illness yesterday? Mozzarella sticks. "You can't put regular gas in a Ferrari. I learned that."

And that’s not even the worst part. He didn’t even see the whole movie. 

He fell asleep! I thought about spoiling it for him. https://t.co/KJIbBNJOSH

He had better stick to popcorn when he goes back to see the rest of the movie.
