Randy Johnson Is Going Viral Over His New Job

Randy Johnson is one of the most dominant pitchers ever to take an MLB mound.

He went to 10 All-Star Games, won the World Series (and the WS MVP) in 2001, took home five Cy Young awards (1995, 1999–2002), won the pitching Triple Crown in 2002, pitched a perfect game on May 18, 2004 and also a no-hitter on June 2, 1990.

He is a proud member of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and retired in 2010.

But life goes on for retired players, even stars.

Some of them prefer to relax and rest, enjoying their hard-earned money, but others want to pursue second careers.

This is the case with Johnson.

“Learned today that randy johnson is now a professional photographer (??) and shoots nfl games (???),” Business Insider’s Sophie Kleeman tweeted, with a picture of the Big Unit with an NFL journalists vest and a camera on him.

Photography Is One Of Johnson’s True Passions

That’s actually a cool second occupation: photography has given Johnson a chance to do what he loves.

Kleeman then tweeted an extract of an interview of Johnson in which he explains his passion for photography and how he prepared himself in the eighties.

He studied photojournalism at the University of Southern California between 1983 and 1985.

Since his retirement, he has much more time to focus on his second career, and it should be celebrated.

He also shoots concerts and wildlife.

Johnson has a website with some of his work.

He is remembered in several cities, such as Seattle, Arizona, and New York, for his work as a pitcher.

However, he is now aiming to build himself a career as a professional photographer, and the NFL is one of his current platforms.
