It’s not unusual for professional athletes to find something of theirsĀ for sale on the internet, but what Takkarist McKinley found certainly wasn’t normal.
The Atlanta Falcons rookie defensive end was surfing the web and found out that some lucky Detroit Lions fan had found one of his dreadlocks on the field after the Falcons’ Week 3 win, and was selling it on eBay.
Wow, now that’s a collector’s item.
And McKinley had some fun tracking the price of his lone dread.
But eBay played buzzkill when it removed the listing after the bid for the dread reached a ridiculous number.
$11,000 for hair?! People really will buy anything to prove their fandom.
We’re sure McKinley will keep a lookout for any more lost dreads on eBay.
