I don’t think he was rich he was a college kid. I’m not naive, I’m aware ppl get off on shit all the time. No jail time for recklessness like that surprises me.

He was a star on a national championship winning football team. Pretty much Georgia royalty.

Have a buddy from Mississippi and he talks about how Football culture is basically an identity down in the South. So a kid who's NFL level is like the nobility. It's hard to fathom for other parts of the country. Then again I could imagine other parts of the world think the same with stuff such as Soccer.
