He was the star of the football, basketball, and baseball teams in high school, winning a total of 5 state championships.

In Pop Culture:

Shaffer holds numerous world records, including being the first man to ever eat mozzarella sticks until his balls fell off. Mick is also a self proclaimed minesweeper champ, and has been quoted saying "Minesweeper is for true athletes. Those who believe they are playing a real sport, are living in a world of lies." Currently Mick leads all Metro Sports anchors in Twitter followers, with over 5500 and counting. He enjoys going to random truck stops and challenging those inside to arm-wrestling competitions, most of which he loses on purpose so as he does not reveal his true strength. Shaffer is very open about his biggest regret in life: never playing the guitar and singing campfire songs around a fire. He is also the highest paid sports anchor in the world, with a 6 year, 69 million dollar deal he signed in 2012. All of the 69 million dollars will be spent on McDoubles and GenX t-shirts. Mick Shaffer is the most influential man in eastern Kansas, tweeting every day to give teenage boys ideas of things they should not do, but probably will end up doing.

Personal Life:

He resides in Overland Park, located in Johnson County, Kansas. Johnson County is known for its overbearing parents who all believe their children are the next Mia Hamm, Derek Jeter, or Neil Armstrong. Mick is very straight forward with his children, forcing them to realize at a young age that they are more likely to work in a bank in a grocery store, than to play shortstop for the New York Yankees. He is the coach of his sons rec baseball team, the "Dirty Sanchez's."
