One man dared to dream a simple dream. That one day he could put all that football practice to use and throw the perfect Hail Mary into a prison yard, with a non-standard football full of drugs and contraband.
Man attempts to throw drug-filled football into prison
It’s easy to come up with a bad idea, but this is one of the worst.
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
Yep, that’s right! One Michigan man has been arrested for attempting to throw a football over a wall into a prison yard. It was packed full of heroin, marijuana, tobacco and three cell phones.
