Drake Was Denied Pittsburgh’s Nicest Hotel Room Thanks To Jaromir Jagr

The Penguins recently rolled out the red carpet to celebrate the legacy of the legendary Jaromir Jagr, but those festivities apparently came at the expense of another notable name who was deprived of the chance to stay in his hotel room of choice: Drake.

A number of wildly talented hockey players have suited up for the Pittsburgh Penguins over the years, and as of Sunday, no one else who plays for the franchise will be able to rock the #68 after it was raised into the rafters at PPG Paints Arena to honor Jaromir Jagr.

Jagr—who would undoubtedly be referred to as a “Hall of Fame winger” if he still wasn’t playing professional hockey in his native Czechia at the age of 52—got a hero’s welcome when he headed back to the city where he played for over a decade after kicking off his NHL career in 1990.

The beloved forward got the chance to take to the ice in a Penguins uniform one last time while surrounded by current players who were rocking wigs inspired by the iconic mullet he was known for sporting during his time with the franchise where he played over 800 games while racking up 439 goals and 640 assists.

showed that he was staying at the Fairmont Pittsburgh, and it appears the team spared no expense by hooking him up with the Presidential Suite at the hotel.

How do we know that’s the case? Well, according to Josh Yohe of The Athletic, Drake (who performed with 21 Savage when the “It’s All A Blur Tour” stopped at the team’s arena on the Friday before the jersey ceremony) was reportedly less than thrilled to learn Jagr and his entourage had already booked the best rooms.

It’s good to know the city of Pittsburgh has its priorities in order.
