An Edmond man is embarking on a very public and humorous trip after a last-place finish in his friend-group's fantasy football league.

Jimmy Quinn will walk from the Edmond Railyard to the Paycom Center on Oklahoma City on Wednesday for Game Two of the Thunder's playoff series against the Pelicans.

It's a 15-mile trip, so Quinn will start walking early in the morning to get to the arena before tip-off. Quinn said the members in his league came up with the punishment.

"This is the first punishment," Quinn said. "According to [Google] Maps it's going to take about 7 hours... surely it's not too bad, it's just walking."
