[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m being serious.  He’s always seemed so lovely.  (And I can’t vote in a GA race so who cares.). But many NFL players have shady pasts so I was wondering whether he had anything obviously wrong.[/quote]

“In 2015 Walker told ESPN that he used to play “Russian Roulette” when guests came to his home. He described these encounters as part of a test of wills, where he would demand that anyone who wanted to challenge him in an athletic endeavor first demonstrate their strength by participating.

So I take a bullet, put it in the cylinder, spin it and tell you to pull it. People would say “Herschel, you’re nuts.” I would take that gun, put it to my head, and snap it. That is what it was. I was so fired up that I could overcome anything.
Walker survived the gamble of performative self-harm and he went on to do a series of interviews discussing them during his various post-football promotional endeavors. “Russian Roulette In Front of House Guests” became, along with “worst trade in NFL history,” part of his brand identity.”
