“You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain,” said Harvey Dent — and such was the fate of young Dax Baxter, the kid from Final Boss Sour’s first viral video more than two years ago
A swimming pool full of tickets went to Baxter’s head. Blinded by pixel-dominance, he overlooked a threat from his old foe: Lid, the humbled ticket jerk
