Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown knows how to make an entrance.

Brown arrived Wednesday for Steelers training camp via helicopter:

Antonio Brown said he didn’t bring any teammates on the #helicopter b/c “It’s a family event for me.” (For the record, he said no one was scared.) https://t.co/Kz0u2YIv6O

Brown also shared his view as he touched down:

The four-time All-Pro will be the envy of his teammates, who had to battle any traffic en route to Latrobe, Pennsylvania.

This isn't the first time Brown turned his arrival into a spectacle, either. He showed up in 2016 in a Steelers-themed Rolls Royce before appearing in a different Rolls Royce in 2017, complete with his own chauffeur. 

After chartering a helicopter Wednesday, though, Brown is setting the bar high for his next publicity stunt at training camp 2019.
