The beautiful thing about the social media era of sports, amid its many drawbacks, is the closer look at the lives and thoughts of pro athletes given to fans.
Or in the case of Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins, his quest to overcome the difficulties of his latest purchase.
So take a brief break from the onslaught of free agency and draft chatter and take a look at Higgins and his very public task of…assembling a jellyfish tank.
Seriously, the saga has a little bit of everything, from Bengals fans trying to help him find contractors to do the work to his mother getting in his mentions about it and to Higgins himself eventually questioning whether it was actually a good home decor decision.
A quick look at the funny multi-day saga before getting back to normal programming:
