An anti hero is not the good guy or the bad guy but someone who is both good and bad. They try to do good but in their own ways. Though their ways may not always be politically or morally correct they can still be considered some type of hero. Anti heroes can be found everywhere. In books, movies, and even in real life. They could be people that you least expect like a role model or someone that others look up to. Someone in real life that could be considered an anti hero is Micheal Vick. Micheal Vick is a well known football player for the Falcons, who has been idealized by sports fans for quite a while. In 2007 he got charged and went to prison for operating an illegal dog fighting ring. After getting out of prison he filed for bankruptcy and got kicked off the Falcons. Later he began playing for the Philadelphia Eagles. Recently President Obama has made a speech about him, praising him for turning around his life. There has been a lot of controversy on whether or not Micheal Vick even deserves a second chance. He has been a football hero, looked up to, and praised. Some may consider him a hero but his low morals make him one of the many anti heroes.
