MLB Free Agent Adam LaRoche Might Have Killed A Fucking Dinosaur On His Latest Hunting Trip

Rob Fox11 years ago

Former Washington Nationals and current free agent first baseman Adam LaRoche has never been selected to an All-Star team, but damned if he isn’t one of Major League Baseball’s All-Star rednecks.

LaRoche, like his good friend and former Atlanta Braves mentor Chipper Jones (who is the king of baseball rednecks), is an avid hunter in the offseason. The guy basically spends the winter killing shit and taking pictures with it. Take, for example, this LaRoche hunting picture, in which he shows off his new scarf.

That picture seems about as good as a hunting picture can get, until you see what LaRoche bagged the other day in the Rocky Mountains. He says it’s an elk, but it might just be a furry fucking dinosaur because Jesus Christ this thing is massive. Are elk descended from triceratops?

Presumably LaRoche is pretty well off, but even still, it’s hard to imagine there are many rooms in his house that could fit that mount. Guy might have to hang it in the garage and start parking his cars in the driveway. I imagine the process of getting this thing back to the cabin was similar to the way that bald hunter in “The Lost World” (who was totally gay bones by the way, go back and watch that movie) had to get the T-Rex off the island after he hit it with a tranquilizer dart: a couple helicopters lifting a giant cargo cage.

Well done Roachy..
