Red October Yeezys

by Brendan Dunne

A Twitter user is hoping to turn his Internet fame into a free pair of Yeezys.

FanSince09, who occupies the Venn diagram overlap between Weird Twitter and Sports Twitter, is the man behind a GoFundMe campaign that's aiming to raise $8,000 for the Nike Air Yeezy 2 "Red October." He expressly states that he's not interested in the, "trash new ones that look like when you ask your moms for Roshes and she knits you a pair herself because they're expensive," and details headships most readers can probably relate to with mention of his believing he could "accomplish getting Yeezys through my own hard work. But then I tried using the Adidas confirmed app. Brick wall. Adidas is trash AF."

FanSince09 earned some of his fame last year when he helped solve a hate crime in Philly.

He's only made a tiny dent in his goal on this first day, with $120 worth of donations registered at the time of writing.
