A customer met me for dinner last night & we talked about his kids. He told me that his youngest son is on full ride and has a NIL deal at Wisconsin for playing the video game Fortnite. NIL payed enough for him to buy a high end Mercedes Benz & more.

Thats definitely took me by surprise. I know those games are huge but never knew B1G schools had teams let alone scholarship kids for gaming.
