Ben Simmons, the No. 1 basketball player in the 2015 class, for some reason chose LSU as his collegiate landing spot. LSU is using the teen's arrival to peddle tickets for their mediocre SEC basketball team through the billboard you see above.

Not that it's rare to see student-athletes pimped by their schools, but it is rare to see a kid who isn't even on campus pimped so hard.

Remember stuff like this next time you hear, "Student-athletes hold no value, actually."
