With training camp arrivals taking place, questions began surfacing about how the Oakland Raiders star wide receiver would make his grand entrance. Well, Antonio Brown did not disappoint.

Friday morning, the Raiders released a video of Brown arriving in Napa, California for the beginning of training camp. As a man who had previously shown up in a helicopter, it was believed that he would take it to a new level. That's exactly what Brown did. The 10th-year veteran flew into Napa on a hot air balloon while talking about the future of the franchise and the importance of grinding during training camp.

"I thought it would be exciting to switch it up," Brown said. "Napa Valley, obviously, is known for the hot air balloons. This camp is so important for this team because, you know, there is a lot at stake. We kinda got to develop our identity. I think it all starts today with the commitment of the guys there and everyone there understanding the reason we there and the reason they're putting the hand in the pile. To make the Raiders great again. It all starts today."

"Raider Nation, I'm here in Napa. It's time to get to work. Float like a butterfly, sting like AB. Let's get to work."

Over the years, the dynamic wide receiver has shown up for training camp in a helicopter and custom black and yellow Rolls Royce's. However, one of his biggest arrivals came in a very old Rolls Royce. This open-top classic didn't feature a custom paint job, but it did come with a chauffeur. That's difficult to top.

Well, Brown managed just that when he arrived in a hot air balloon. A helicopter is a bold move indeed, but it has been used by many NFL figures in the past. It would be difficult to find another receiver or player in general that has arrived via a hot air balloon. That's quite a statement.

No matter how he arrives, the Raiders are simply happy to have the veteran receiver in the building. Heading into the season, there are obviously questions about the future prospects of this franchise and how it will translate in 2019. Oakland went 4-12 and struggled mightily on both sides of the ball during the 2018 campaign, and fixing those issues is critical for future success.

Of course, previous struggles don't matter to Brown; he's focused on winning a Super Bowl before he retires, and getting this team back into contention is the first step. He will be putting in considerable work during training camp while attempting to prove Mike Mayock and Jon Gruden correct for making the trade with Pittsburgh.
