Are you beast enough to tame the Marshawn Lynch corn maze in Olympia?

This year's corn maze at the Rutledge Farm features a nearly full-body image of the Seahawks running back.

"Every year, it's a big decision, but we really enjoyed his Beast Mode and the fans were so behind that," says Camille Hemenway, of Rutledge.

The image was laid-out by GPS and not cut into a planted field.

She says the maze, planted in March, will open to the public on Aug. 10 and Lynch will visit Sept. 1 to help raise money for his charity, Fam 1st Foundation and sign autographs.

Hemenway says his charity is aimed at empowering and uplifting kids the in Bay Area, where Lynch lives.

"This one is going to take a little bit of time to get through. It's combined two mazes and it should take you a good hour and a half, two hours to get through," says Hemenway.

She says they have another haunted corn maze that opens in the fall for Halloween.

    ...with time on your hands. Altho, no other medium will express itself better for a good cause/person. Marshawn should be proud indeed. Only thing missing is a bag of Skittles.

    They didn't give him a Noble Peace Prize. They mowed down some corn.

    And I quote:

    "This year's corn maze at the Rutledge Farm features a nearly full-body image of the Seahawks running back.."

    Some may have wondered why they didn't finish the maze with his feet showing. Rumor has it, when he posed for the maze he still had the ankle cuffs and chains on since his DUI in Cali.

    Of course, that is just a rumor and can in no way be verified.... ;-)
