Joe Allen. Von Miller. Two men with seemingly nothing in common aside from being professional athletes. Two men who share a rare hobby: chickens.

Joe Allen has 16 chickens, which he talked about in the most recent edition of Chicken & Egg Magazine, which is a real magazine.
Can he name all 16 of his chickens? Of course Joe Allen can name all 16 of his chickens.
“The cockerels are named Bruce and Rodney, and the hens are Meg, Leg, Silkie Steve, Kate, Silkie Steve Junior, Giblets, Snowy, Nugget, Kiev, Dora, Holly, Shimmer, Shine and Chickaletta,” he says in the interview.
Two things: Silkie Steve Junior is definitely named after Steven Gerrard and "Giblets" and "Nugget" are weird names for chickens.
What does this have to do with Super Bowl MVP Von Miller? Miller has an actual college degree in chickens from Texas A&M, and owns his own chicken farm.
We wonder who the superior chicken raiser is.
