Seahawks’ Super Fan Going Away for a While

Scott Shelton is an unemployed father of two and convicted felon who will soon return to prison for a parole violation. Outside of that, his main claim to fame is he caught the football Seahawks receiver Jermaine Kearse threw into the stands after scoring the winning touchdown in the NFC Championship. Shelton was reportedly offered $20,000 for the ball but turned it down because he’d prefer his kids remain in potato sacks while he’s out getting drunk at the game. Now he has given the ball to Kearse in exchange for his game jersey. Kearse reportedly offered him Super Bowl tickets, but Shelton already has his, which is troubling because I can’t afford them and I have zero kids and kind of a job. If you’re doing the math, Shelton is an idiot. He needs to turn himself into police the day after the Super Bowl, so look for him to be really shit faced, probably cry at some point, and kill someone if the Hawks lose. Or win.A 12th Man with nothing to lose.
