Only in the Vatican!

Don King got a front row seat at the Pope’s general audience yesterday and was dangerously close to getting a private meeting with his Holiness. If only they had walked into a bar, we’d have a joke on our hands. Ok, we actually have many jokes on our hands:
King was to inquire where Pope Benedict XVI purchased his hat, as it is the only type that would cover King’s hair.
The Pope is actually the only member of the Vatican City’s boxing commission.
Don King wanted to know how to apply for sainthood.
Don King wanted to know how to apply for popehood.
King had a bet to settle, and really needed to know if the Pope shit in the woods.
Mike Tyson wants to fight Jesus, these are the two people who could get that together.
Honestly though, Don King is one of the most interesting people on the planet. He served four years after being convicted of manslaughter, he steals from men who can kill normal people with their bare hands, and he seriously wears his hair like that. To top it off, he got a special seat at one of the Pope’s masses and gave the Bishop of Rome a championship belt and a letter. This guy isn’t even Catholic! Don King, you continue to amaze me.
