Ripleys "Believe it or not" ?

Shane Moore

THIS is why California is dying.

Despite earning a $178,000 Super Bowl winner’s bonus, he was required to pay an estimated $249,000 in California state income taxes due to the state’s "jock tax." This tax applies to non-resident athletes who work in California, based on the number of "duty days" spent in the state—eight days for Super Bowl week.

As a result, Darnold faced a net loss of approximately $71,000 on his Super Bowl victory. The tax is calculated on a portion of his full annual salary (from his $100.5 million contract with the Seahawks), not just the bonus.
