what gum does pete carroll chew

Pete Carroll, the coach of the Seattle Seahawks, is known for his love of chewing gum, specifically Bubble Yum. On game days, he can go through as many as three packs of gum, which is roughly 15 pieces of gum per game and around 260 pieces of gum per season. His gum stash is stocked by the Seahawks director of equipment Erik Kennedy and son Carson. According to Carson, the 15 pieces estimate may be more than a bit on the low side, saying that roughly half of a gameday stash — 270 pieces of gum total — will be missing. Carrolls infatuation with chewing gum has become something of a sticking point with fans, but he says its his "only habit".
