Deadspin HOF Nominee: Nightmare Ant
After a two-year hiatus from our Hall of Fame nominating rolls, Nightmare Ant has returned. But really, Nightmare Ant will never really go away. Hell, Christopher Nolan just made a movie about him.
The Fort Wayne Mad Antz have never known what they've had, not that any of them are still alive to state their case. Nightmare Ant is one of the million things we have to thank Skeets for, and he might be the most important.
But: Is Nightmare Ant a Deadspin Hall of Famer?
You decide. Seventy five percent is the threshold for induction. Vote below: Polls will be open through Labor Day.
