In case you ever wonder what happened to former Ole Miss running back John Avery, here's your answer: He's hazing public relations interns in Canada. Avery, who now plays for the CFL's Toronto Argonauts (he probably wasn't doing much until Ricky Williams got hurt), was seen in a photo in the Toronto Star pouring sugar on Intern Mark, who had been taped to a post. (Maybe Avery is just a big Def Leppard fan.)
The wacky Argos also poured water, produce and whipped cream on the intern. The incident prompted outrage among Star readers. It prompted a shoulder shrug among Argos officials who asked, "What's the big deal?" Said Intern Mark (allegedly): In my 22 years, it's the best birthday I've ever had. God help him. (Thanks to Deadspin for pointing the way to this.)
