Referee Garrick Shannon's Tattoo Stole The Show In Last Night's Alabama Game

Married to the game. I loved this. Did a near double take when I saw it, and then had to rewind, pause and make sure I had it right but man was it worth it. I absolutely LOVE it. 

Now do I think it's a hardo move to do this? 1000% percent, but is it creative, is it interesting, and does it show that you are without a doubt entrenched in your profession and absolutely love what you are doing? Yes, yes, and yes. This is the stuff you want to see when you turn on a 25 point blow out on the 2nd night of the season. Fan sections acting reckless, a mid major playing a non d1 school, a power conference team in a war on their home court in a game they regret scheduling, broadcasters you will never recognize, streaming apps galore, and a ref with a tattoo that's so ridiculous it makes you laugh. 

Early season basketball at it's finest. Auto invite to the Bosco Bash for Garrick Shannon - seems like a fun guy.
