After three years under King, Tyson didn’t even know he had a fan club. When the fighter found out, his longtime chauffeur and assistant, Rudy Gonzalez, says he and Tyson went to the Fan Club office within King’s training facilities in Orwell, Ohio, to see what Tyson had been paying for. When they entered, they saw crates filled with thousands of unopened envelopes from fans, as well as photographs and underwear from women. Sitting on the floor, opening some of the yellowed mail, Gonzalez, who will also likely be a key witness for Tyson, remembers the then heavyweight champ reading a letter from a woman in the Midwest. Her child had been dying of cancer. She wondered if Tyson could give the kid a call. Gonzalez remembers getting the number, dialing, and passing the phone off to Tyson who, after only a few minutes, hung up, cursed King and started to cry. The call was a year too late. “Mike never really knew how important he was until then, that so many people had reached out to him,” says Gonzalez, who authored the 1995 memoir The Inner Ring. “Mike never really knew he was somebody who had the power to change lives. He was an elephant in chains, the biggest freak act in Don King’s circus, and when he didn’t want to perform anymore, they tried to take him in the back and shoot him.”

Portions of Anne Frank’s diary were censored because she described her clitoris. Until I was eleven or twelve, I didn’t realize there was a second set of labia on the inside, since you couldn’t see them. What’s even funnier is that I thought urine came out of the clitoris…When you’re standing up, all you see from the front is hair. Between your legs there are two soft, cushiony things, also covered with hair, which press together when you’re standing, so you can’t see what’s inside. They separate when you sit down and they’re very red and quite fleshy on the inside. In the upper part, between the outer labia, there’s a fold of skin that, on second thought, looks like a kind of blister. That’s the clitoris.”

John F. Kennedy was dating Miss Denmark in the 1940’s, and when they stayed at Sumter House in Charleston the FBI bugged their room because they thought she may be a Nazi spy. The reason the FBI thought she was a Nazi spy was that she was Adolf Hitler’s companion during the 1936 Summer Olympics. Turns out they didn’t hear a lot of conversation, but instead a lot of NSFW time. Tapes are in the Library of Congress for those interested.
