Brad White (defensive lineman)
- ... that Brad White was a potato farmer who went on to play six years in the National Football League? Source: potato farming source ("White grew up on a farm, and when he wasn't farming potatoes of his own, he worked on much larger 3-4,000 acre potato farms") six years in NFL source (another source for six NFL seasons here)

New enough, long enough, sourced, neutral, no plagiarism. Hook is in the article, cited, verified, and interesting. QPQ is complete. This is good to go. Z1720 (talk) 17:13, 2 August 2022 (UTC)- Wouldn't it be better to make it more vague so that way it would be more interesting like this: ALT1: ... that an NFL player used to farm around 3,000–3,400 acres of potatoes? The source will remain the same and it will sound more wacky and interesting. Sportsfangnome (talk) 22:37, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
- That could work, although I like the original hook best ("That Brad White was a potato farmer who went on to play six years in the National Football League?"). BeanieFan11 (talk) 18:23, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
