NBC Interviewed A Random Tourist About The Queen, And Didn't Realize He Was Evander Holyfield
This morning's Today Show was still, for some reason, talking about that opening ceremony bit with Daniel Craig and HRH Queen Elizabeth II. They decided to get some "man on the street" comments from tourists in front of Buckingham Palace, and one of them was Evander Holyfield! Blink and you'll miss him—Holyfield thought the segment was "wonderful"—but the NBC crew didn't seem to recognize the former world heavyweight champ (and Olympic medalist).
It's unlikely anyone would have noticed had Holyfield not tweeted about it this morning.
