Tim Tebow arrested for soliciting sexual favors (satire, hoax) [View all]

Friday evening, the former Denver Broncos Quarterback Tim Tebow, was arrested for soliciting sexual favors.

The Sheriff’s Department arrested Tim Tebow, the 27 year old religious icon and former Florida Gators star quarterback, who once claimed he invented Gatorade, on Friday at a hotel on the outskirts of Jacksonville.

Sources say Tebow say he is expected to apologize in an open letter for the “inappropriate sexual encounter.”
Tebow said it was Christ’s love that put him in this position, the Jacksonville Daily News reported. According to police reports Tebow had also told officers he was there to “bless the woman with his Holy water,” and not to solicit sexual favors.

Turns out this is satire. Some things are just too good to be true.
