Deadspin HOF Nominee: Pac Man Jones
It is easy to forget, in this new day of Ron Mexico and dogfighting, that Pac Man Jones was once the poster boy for All That Is Wrong With Humanity. It seems so silly now, doesn't it? Man, the guy just wants to rassle professionally. Is that so wrong?
It all started with that whole strip club shooting thing — which, we remind you, did leave a man paralyzed — and was gussied up by the whole Making It Rain business, a phrase for which a grateful nation of white people thanks Pac Man. And then was kicked out of the league for a year and plans on spending that time rappin' and rasslin'. It has been a busy year.
But is he a Hall of Famer? Seventy five percent is the threshold for induction. Vote below: Polls will be open until next Monday morning.
