A hilarious photo of an Arlington man covered head-to-toe in peanut butter inside a Deep Ellum dog park is taking off online, primarily because the stunt was punishment for coming in dead last in his fantasy football league this year. For those who don’t obsess over draft plans, team schedules, or player stats, fantasy football is a predominantly online game where you’re the owner of a virtual professional football team. You draft offensive skill players, a defense, and how they do in actual NFL games translates to points in fantasy matchups online. Steven Shrout, 25, had never played fantasy football before this year. He decided to join a 12-team league with all of his friends from high school this year, who have been playing fantasy football together since 2009.
“It was my first year, and I didn’t do any kind of studying at first. I just kind of jumped in,” Shrout said. Shrout selected LeVeon Bell as his first pick, who was expected to play with the Pittsburgh Steelers this previous season, but ended up sitting out because he and the team couldn’t come to an agreement on a new contract. Bell has been a top player in fantasy in previous seasons, and many fantasy football owners felt the agony of his decision to sit out the season after wasting a pick on him in the first round of their drafts. However, Shrout doesn’t have too much room to talk because he auto-drafted after his first pick. “I ended up being dead last,” Shrout said.
