Ever wonder which celebrity is actually illiterate? Sure, we all have. But BetUS.com actually lays the odds and makes Mike Tyson (of course) the favorite at 2/1.

Tracking Down That Underground Tyson-Kimmel Video
We're very flattered, everyone, that apparently so many of you read Deadspin and not ESPN.com, but, quite frankly, we don't believe you.
