The ESPN SEC Nation crew rolled into Lexington, Kentucky for their weekly show on Saturday, which just happened to land on Halloween. As such, fans were dressed up in their best costumes. None were better than the one worn by this kid, who went as former UK quarterback Jared Lorenzen, aptly nicknamed the “Hefty Lefty.”

Lorenzen is a bit of a cult hero around Kentucky, beloved for his skills in the pocket as much as his size. With this fan being a lot smaller than the former QB, a fat suit was needed under the jersey and pads to pay proper tribute, but it was executed to perfection.
In fact, it was so good that Lorenzen, who was in attendance for the pregame festivities, just had to meet the kid and take a picture with him. Oh, and he rubbed his fake belly like a Buddha. You can’t pass up an opportunity like that.
