Any Shawne "Lights Out" Merriman fans?

This is one big boy at 6'4" & 272lbs.

The question Shawne is most often asked is where the nickname “Lights Out” originated. He was given that nickname during his sophomore season in high school after he knocked out four players in the first half of a game against Fort Meade. He was such a ferocious hitter in high school that his coaches didn’t even allow him to participate in contact drills with his teammates. On his right forearm is a tattoo of a light switch in the off position and the words “Lights Out,” and his Mercedes G500 has the “Lights Out” logo emblazoned on its headrests and floor mats.

A pro?
A lunatic more like it.
Just a guy with a camera that was lucky enough to get a press pass that day. I only had my 18-55mm and 28-75mm at that time, and this was taken from perhaps 8-10 feet away.
