Image Credit: Twiggs County Sheriff's Office A Philadelphia Eagles linebacker was arrested in Georgia last week, according to ESPN . Deputies clocked the luxury vehicle he was driving at nearly twice the posted speed limit . The driver is a Super Bowl-winning Eagles player who grew up in the state and played college football there: Nolan Smith.
He was found tearing up the road on a stretch of highway through a small county where the speed limit is 70 mph. The Lamborghini's radar reading was 135. The traffic stop itself, the Twiggs County Sheriff's Office said, was uneventful, despite the fact that the police found themselves working with a somewhat popular athlete.
That alone was enough to get the attention of social media denizens around the internet. The incident has now traveled well beyond the small Georgia county where it began, largely because of who was behind the wheel. The Super Bowl-winning player had decided to open up on a Georgia road and now finds himself paying the price.
