After Michael Sam became the the first openly gay player
to be drafted by the NFL, ESPN captured his emotionalreaction and when he gave a big ol' smooch to
his boyfriend, Vito Cammisano. Of course, everyone wondered who was this
mystery man who was locking lips with the 9th Most Powerful LGBT person in America
(according to our sister site Out.com's Power List, anyway).
It turns out, Cammisano and Sam both attended the University of Missouri, where Cammisano was on the swim
team from 2009 to 2012, according to Sports Grid. The two Millenials certainly aren't camera
shy: Check out thisphoto of Cammisano in action as a junior. The site also reports that the communications major came
out three years ago and graduated in 2013.
After the photo of them kissing was quickly circulated around the world
via social media, the two didn't stop. It seems they celebrated the occasion of
the NFL draft pick at TAO Nightclub in Las Vegas Saturday night.
According to sources, a group of 10 — including his agent and
friends — were on hand as Sam was surprised by a presentation from the club and
a shout out from DJ Vice. He also spotted Richard Sherman of the NFL champion
Seattle Seahawks at a neighboring table the two chatted for a few minutes.
The crowd at TAO later cheered as Sam and Cammisano danced and
waved when Vice asked: “Do we have any Rams fans in the house?!” The couple
returned to their table where they celebrated the historic day until 3 a.m.,
according to reliable sources.
