Most people probably think of George Foreman as the name on a grill, but I recall Big George, the iconic Heavyweight Champion. His opponents literally feared him. He was immensely powerful, delivering punches that could end it all. Even the great Ali admitted he was apprehensive about fighting him. The Rumble in the Jungle in 1974 settled the debate, leaving Ali on top, but it took eight rounds to put Big George on the canvas. But he didn't stay down. He made an historic comeback at the age of 45 to become the champ again. He retired for good at 46 in 1995 after defending his IBF title and laying down his WBA belt.

The bell he hears ringing today is of another realm. Rest well, George, and grill up something for St. Peter. After all, it's so good you put your name on it.

Harry the hooked nose hawk had finally been caught. His need for human man meat had become insatiable.

It all started when Big George McGee stopped on the side of the road to take a leak within sight of Harry, perched on his favorite light pole. George's massive member sent Harry into a dive with claws ready to grab and rip. Poor George never knew what hit him until it was too late. Since it was in the middle of nowhere, no one heard his screams. Another traveler found him later.

RIP Big George

After MONTHS of Big George hiding away in a corner with under his coconut, I caught him exploring his habitat!
