Sam Hustler- The NOT so Frugal Football Fanatic

Meet Sam Hustler. Born on October 16th (though he strictly refuses to reveal the year), Sam is an indecisive Libra who lives by the cryptic motto: "Beauty is skin deep, but resilience is in numbers." Whatever that means. He’s currently enrolled in free online e-courses studying "accounting,"—which is hilarious, because it seems the guy has a literal hole in his pocket, and his own cash always happens to vanish off to the races somewhere.Sam claims his favorite place to travel is Kentucky because he just loves the "scenery"—and, naturally, his favorite animals are "horses." Hmm. Interesting choice for an accounting student, Sam.

When he isn't taking those sudden trips to KY, Sam used to have a steady gig working stadium concession stands, but he recently got fired after being caught shooting dice behind the dumpster with some college kids. Now, when he's not hanging out with his pet tarantula, Chaco (affectionately known as Chaco Taco), you can find him at the loudest sports bars in town. He'll be the one aggressively flirting with the bartenders, ordering plates of greasy fried mozzarella, fried mushrooms with bleu cheese, and washing it down with a cold Pilsner beer while keeping a very close eye on the lines for the weekend games.

Good luck getting him to tell you who he’s actually backing, though. Is he putting money on the Tennessee Vols? Are his loyalties with the Clemson Tigers? Or is he working the spread on the Florida Gators? He won't say. To keep you from asking too many questions about his weekend wagers, he’s brought along a hand-sculpted pansy flower. He claims it's a gift, but let's be real: he either brought it to offer comfort in case your team loses, or he's using it to console himself because he just lost a grand on the point spread.

The Artistry & Process: This isn't your average mass-produced garden gnome. Sam is a true labor of love, requiring an intensive, multi-day creation process:

• Meticulous Hand-Painting: Every single detail on Sam is intricately painted by hand, taking over six hours just for the initial layer.

• Built to Last: He features a full second coat of paint for rich, vibrant color payoff and is sealed with a premium Krylon UV clear coat spray to protect his details from fading.

• Handmade Character: From his wonderfully elusive expression to the tiny petals on his pansy, he is a one-of-a-kind art piece.

Placement: Perfect for indoor shelves, your desk, or a covered patio where he can quietly watch the pre-game shows.
