Well, my wife was the first female to drive the Indianapolis 500 pace car, which is pretty neat — particularly when you know that she can’t drive. But I’d definitely say basketball. I’ve known Larry Bird since we were kids. When he was on the Celtics and I was playing in Boston, he and Kevin McHale would come to my dressing room after the show and smoke me under the table.

What? Did John Cougar just say that Larry would come by his room and puff the magic dragon? Everyone knew that McHale and Walton were potheads, but Larry Legend? UB thought he was just a beer drinker...Wasn't the general consensus that Larry and Kevin only hung-out on the court?

It would explain that "Big 33" McDonald's burger. That thing was a late night reefer addict's dream...
