The Seahawks have had better players come through, but there may be no bigger fan favorite than Marshawn Lynch. Lynch’s exploits on and off the field are the stuff of legend, from buying Fireball shots for an entire bar to his part in the most famous play in team history.
Following his 67-yard Beast Quake run against the Saints in the playoffs, Lynch went out of his way to thank his offensive linemen. According to former Seattle guard Tyler Polumbus, Lynch walked into their meeting room and dropped a giant wad of cash on the table and then walked out.

As for what they did with the money, Polumbus says they went to Vegas.
