Gone Hunting: Breaking Down Michigan’s Easter Egg Edit

The nation’s top college sports graphic designer belongs to the University of Michigan. Aaron Bills is his name and he’s the guy behind all of the amazing photoshop football and recruiting edits. Well, he was at it again on Sunday but this time it was a teaser for Easter.
