Nelly lyrics read by Blues captain David Backes comes off quite hilarious, and it’s the focal point of a new video series titled “Great Moments in St. Louis Literary History,” which will be airing during a Blues home game at Scottrade Center soon.

The initial feature also includes defenseman Robert Bortuzzo reading a quote from Hannibal native Mark Twain.

What’s next: Robby Fabbri reading Dr. Seuss? Vladimir Tarasenko reciting recipes from Martha Stewart’s cookbook?

Who knows, but story time has never been this fun.
