Not getting enough traction on one of your Craigslist postings? Just get on Twitter and ask your favorite athlete (or celebrity) if they’ll do you a solid by tweeting out the link. He or she likely won’t — unless it’s Rams defensive end Chris Long.
A Falcons blogger asked Long to retweet his lawnmower listing on Tuesday, valued at $35, and he actually obliged:
@JOEL9ONE Hey Chris you are my favorite player I would love an RT for this lawnmower I'm selling on Craigslist thanks http://t.co/oKQxuJwHL4

Has it helped business? Maybe?
@FalconsJAdams Had a lot of interest in this lawnmower, so the price is firm. Also, it doesn't run and might be haunted.

Now, if you’re a BC follower you know we love Craigslist here, so it would be a crime if we didn’t dig deeper into the ad. It turns out there’s much more for sale than just a lawnmower that doesn’t run!
