Each week during the 2023 season, we’re going through the Eagles media guide to find an interesting nugget.
The Eagles’ PR interns do a great job filling out these little oddities in the media guide and they serve as a good way to meet the players behind the helmets.
This week, we chatted with tight end Jack Stoll, who considers ice cream to be his guilty pleasure.

Me: Your guilty pleasure is ice cream?
Stoll: Oh yeah. I love me some ice cream now.
Me: What’s your favorite flavor or way to have ice cream?
Stoll: You get me cake batter from Cold Stone, that’s a problem. I gotta start working on my kick slide if I have too much of that. That’s it right there.
NFL
Me: That’s the one?
Stoll: That’s the one, hands down.
Me: Is that No. 1 by far or is there another one that comes close for you?
Stoll: I think that’s 1. Dairy Queen is all right. I think it’s a little overhyped honestly. If we’re going to with fast food chains, though, you can never go wrong with a Frosty. Frostys are good.
Stoll: (to Dallas Goedert): What other ice creams you think?
Goedert: Ben and Jerry’s, the …
Stoll: Half-baked.
Me: The cookie dough, brownie?
Goedert: The Jimmy [Fallon].
Stoll: The Jimmy [Fallon], he’s got one of those. I’m not on that.
Note: Ben and Jerry’s has a flavor called The Tonight Dough. It has caramel and chocolate ice cream with chocolate cookie swirls, chocolate chip cookie dough and peanut butter cookie dough.
Stoll: The cake batter from Cold Stone is still it.
Me: So what if there was a Jack Stoll flavor at Ben and Jerry’s?
Stoll: Dude, that’s easy. It’d be cake batter with Oreo. That’s what I’m gonna do. Cake batter with Oreo.
Me: I like that. OK, in front of me, there was a poll last year, the top 10 most popular flavors in the United States. What do you think was No. 1?
Stoll: No. 1? This is everything?
Me: Mmhmm.
Stoll: I feel like vanilla is too obvious …
Me: (Stares at him)
Stoll: Vanilla? Really?
Me: Vanilla No. 1. It's easy answers here. So vanilla No 1.
Stoll: Chocolate No. 2. I’m gonna guess strawberry 3.
Me: Strawberry, 3.
Stoll: This is where it probably gets interesting.
Me: Yeah. 4 I wouldn’t have guessed.
Stoll: Oreo?
Me: Cookies and cream is at 6.
Stoll: Oh! What about mint chocolate chip?
Me: Mint chocolate chip is 5.
Stoll: What about regular chocolate chip? Is that a different one?
Me: That’s not on here.
Stoll: OK, so that’s five. Let me think.
Me: I’ll give you 7 because seven is kind of in that realm. It’s chocolate chip cookie dough.
Stoll: I was going to get cookie dough. So cookie dough is 7.
Me: 4 I think of as, like, an old person ice cream.
Stoll: Butterscotch?
Me: Butter pecan.
Stoll: That’s 4? Yeah, that is not on my list.
Me: Yeah, me neither. So you’ve got 1-7 so far.
Stoll: I’m trying to think of other good flavors.
Me: You’re doing pretty good.
Stoll: Is birthday cake on there?
Me: No. That’s a good guess.
Stoll: No birthday cake? Oh that’s surprising. What about just regular mint?
Me: No. One of them is green.
Stoll: Pistachio?
Me: Pistachio at 10.
Stoll: What about banana … split maybe? You might have to give me this one.
Me: I’ll give you the last two. 8 is Rocky Road.
Stoll: Ohhhh, OK.
Me: And 9 is coffee.
Stoll: I’m not a big coffee guy either. That’s a solid list.
Me: You did good. I appreciate it.
Stoll: Hey, I’ll take it. No problem.
