The Finger King! A Twitch Streamer Set A Guitar Hero World Record By Playing Free Bird Perfectly At 300% Speed

A man can be an artist in anything. Food, whatever. It depends on how good he is at it. CarnyJared's art is Guitar Hero and he just painted his masterpiece. 

What a fucking performance and a testament to the human spirit after trying then failing to perfectly play Free Bird comically fast more than 500 times. That's a whole lot of failures followed by CarnyJared pulling himself up by his boot straps and trying again with nothing to show for his effort outside of keeping Mrs. CarnyJared very satisfied. Anybody that has ever been stuck trying to beat a video game level or set a record could feel that sigh of relief followed by the requisite LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOO!!!

Sidenote: I'm pretty sure I made the same face when I finally beat the Hudson River level of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game on NES

Anyway, congrats to the new Finger King, long may he reign. And congrats to the previous Finger King who has moved on from the finger game to reclaim his throne here at Barstool.
