Default river overbet shove bluff

Kind of a weird decision here by me... let me explain my thought process a bit.

Villain and I don't have much history... he's a seemingly nitty 17/15 type nitty tagg. I'm playing kind of nitty as well, and I've been really sick the last couple weeks so this is my first session in a while.

River I'm shoving $377 to win $72 so initial risk:reward type thinking suggests it's awful. However, how often can he ever call here, especially considering that I have the ace of spades? For anyone thinking I'm just making a stupid image post, I want to clarify and say that I think everytime I've ever made a shove in a similar spot, it's been 100% pure nuts, every time. This would suggest that he probably couldn't call profitably without them, although I wouldn't ever expect him to fold something like JsXs.

Anyway, thoughts? If nothing else, I hope this is a break from the standard, boring hands everyone is so used to seeing.
