Ndamukong Suh has been a face man for Subway since entering the NFL two years ago but he and the company have combined “face” and Subway sandwiches in a new way. Yes, it is a bust of Suh made out of Subway, take a look:

Subway put together a similar sandwich sculpture of Robert Griffin III in New York during draft week. Here’s to hoping a full body version of Vince Wilfork is next. That would be epic.

Mr. Suh and Me

When I took the job as a SideLion Report staff writer , I was pretty excited. I was pretty busy and had a lot going on in my life, like…ummm, well, ok, maybe I didn’t have a lot going on. But I figured I could write some articles on the Lions, have debates with fans who didn’t agree with my viewpoint; maybe someday write an article so brilliant and insightful that it leads to a Lions Super Bowl victory AND to world peace. I never thought I would get a chance to meet Ndamukong Suh.

As has been reported previously, Mr. Suh was doing a promotion for Subway restaurants in downtown Detroit. I was invited to attend thanks to the graciousness of my editor and the lucky coincidence of a vacation day that had already been planned. I headed to downtown, camera in hand. When I knocked on the Subway door, a gentleman answered. When I informed him that I was there for the Suh media event, he told that there was no media event. Feeling totally foolish I turned away, only to find out that apparently other sports writers have a funny sense of humor and they like messing with the newbies. In retrospect the panic attack he caused me was quite funny.

After the panic had subsided I entered with my notebook in hand and my little Sony camera in its case. Only to realize that my handy little camera was dwarfed in size by the professional tv crews and newspaper cameras. And apparently my itouch is not an acceptable substitute for a voice recorder.

So now, having felt panicked, foolish, and inadequate (I was reliving high school all over again), I sat down to wait for Mr. Suh. (more…)

Ndamukong Suh stands out anywhere he goes, especially when he’s standing in front of the Subway restaurant on Beaubien Street holding a bushel of avocados. The NFL’s most active rookie/sophomore has been in Detroit the last couple of days promoting Subway’s sandwiches and took a little time to talk to the media for a few [...]
