Anyone remember Onterrio Smith? Anyone? Okay, an easier question: does anyone remember a Vikings player caught with a Whizzinator? That was Onterrio Smith. (Kinda topical posts on the old site legacy plays on:
Matt Little called his sister over the weekend and told her, “You’ll never guess what I just bought.” He then asked her if she had heard of the Original Whizzinator that had been in the news.
“She said, ‘Yeah, some idiot paid $750 for that thing.’ I said, ‘Yeah, that was me,'” Little said with a laugh Sunday night.
Little, 26, owns Buster’s, a sports bar in Mankato. He is the mystery man who purchased the Whizzinator that ex-Viking Onterrio Smith was so famously detained with at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport in 2005. That piece of inglorious local sports history — a device with a prosthetic penis attached to a jock strap and filled with “clean” urine to help pass a drug test — was up for auction Friday night in Shakopee.
It’s probably just the 7-year-old in me that finds it amusing that this particular device was being auctioned off in a place called Shake-o-pee.
