Two things surprised me when I was watching the news and saw Evel Knievel died. The first, was that he was still alive. I thought he died years ago, trying to jump over the Grand Canyon or something.
The second, was that his name wasn't spelled "Evil." Growing up in the 70s, when he was always on his motorcycle in that goofy red, white, and blue outfit -- I just assumed that was the spelling.
Not sure how he died. Go Google it. That ain't my job!
Anyway, I find it rather suspicious that Kanye West (whose mom recently died during liposuction), had recently settled a lawsuit with Evel. The rapper had impersonated him in a music video. Then, two days after the settlement, Knievel dies.
Remember how this whole east coast/west coast thing happened with the rappers?
I can just picture a drive-by happening and a member of Kanye's crew goes down in a hail of bullets.
The police talking to dispatch:
"No...it wasn't an Escalade with tinted windows and spinners. It was a motorcycle. It looked like the license plate said R-O-B-B-I-E."
