Actress Jennifer Garner says the 'Daft Day' cast were turned into Cleveland Browns fans after filming scenes with the American football team fans.

The 41-year-old actress stars opposite Kevin Costner in the story, which follows the American football team on the first day of the NFL (National Football League) draft, reported Contactmusic.

"We shot something where we needed Cleveland fans to show up in body make-up and in their Cleveland gear. So many people showed up. We needed them to stay for a full day - 12 hours - standing outside.

"They showed up, they cheered every take. It was more about keeping them tamped down than it was ever needing to say 'OK guys, Sorry, just to match your energy from 5 hours ago we need you to boost up.' We never had to say that. They were good to go. Their love for the Browns was so huge it turned us all into Cleveland Browns fans for sure," she said.
