OLD FAT BALD HERO

One of the great sports stories of the decade of the 1990’s was of George Foreman regaining the heavyweight boxing championship of the world. At age 45, George Foreman, more than a decade past the prime of most fighters, knocked out his opponent, Michael Moore, and regained the championship.

Almost immediately, advertisers flocked around him, wanting him to endorse their products because, they said, "George Foreman has become the hero of every old, fat, & bald person in this country." Isn’t that great!
