Maybe Jim McElwain didn't actually look like a sunburned raccoon on ESPN

The Internet: Not always true.

Last week, prior to Florida's arrival in Hoover for SEC Media Days on Monday, the SEC Network aired a special entitled Florida Summer Football Tour. This occasioned one of my favorite1 things: People taking pictures of their television sets to document something that is strange!

In this case, it was Florida coach Jim McElwain apparently having a "purple" sunburn.

It may or may not surprise you to learn that McElwain was not #actually burned so badly his skin turned purple, or even fire-engine red.
