I forgot to send one in but I did locate the exact day when Gawker crested and began to go downhill. Read more
I fought the urge to make the entire column a line-by-line parsing of that movie. Everything from the guy who never had a pro fight getting a shot with the top guy in the world to the crush of bets on the Irish guy is here tonight. The only thing missing is the Rev. Sultan.
I’ve already seen this fight. They made a movie about it. It’s called The Great White Hype.
Objectively a very cool name, though a little unexpected from a fireballer.
Husky and Starch
‘87 Ft Lauderdale FL we sung the same 2nd verse
1972 California. Only one verse.
I was in Kindergarten in 89'. I def remember Joker peeing on the wall. Best part!
I am 41 and neither my 12 year old nor I have ever heard this. (But we both approve.)
I learned this with the second verse.
Yes; that motherfucker was always peeing. Kindergarten in 1985, rural Ohio.
Im 33 and that second verse was a thing in my day.
Can’t give you an exact year, but I’m 37 now, and definitely sang that verse as a kid.
Joker peed on the wall in Georgia, circa 1993
Oh no we were definitely singing the second verse back in late 80s New Jersey
Yes, 1991 kindergarten. Oregon
I thought the first verse ended with “the Joker does ballet”
I had forgotten that verse until right now. It was a thing in 1994, possibly 1993.
