Your Friendly Neighborhood Mike Tyson
Spider-Mike
It looks like Jackson now has some competition from Tyson in the "Stupidest Lines Uttered by a Michael" category this month.
Tyson apparently approached a "suspicious-acting man" near his home recently and yelled at the man, asking him what he was doing. Of course, the man was startled and scared upon seeing Tyson. My guess is that it's not because Tyson is a professional boxer, but instead because the guy knows that Mike Tyson is a nutcase. When he ran away, he was probably covering his ears to keep them safe.
I mostly just wanted to note what Tyson said about himself in light of this confrontation, according to the Seattle Times:
"The guy was scared to death," the mercurial Tyson told Newsday. "He was saying, 'Oh my God, Mr. Tyson, I'm sorry, I dropped my wallet somewhere on this block and I was looking for it.' "
Unlike Charles Bronson, Tyson said he momentarily felt "a little guilty" about his actions — until several frightened neighbors, who'd also seen the man lurking about, came up and thanked him.
"You believe that?" Tyson said. "Now I'm the neighborhood watch!
"I'm Spider-man!"
Yikes. I'm thinking that, when Wesley Willis died, his spirit passed on into Mike Tyson's body.
Rock over London, rock on Phoenix.
