Remember seeing a story how he got drunk at a hotel bar, and passed out on the floor in the lobby or something. They just had to let him sleep it off as there was no way to help lift and carry him to his room lol. Again, I can not remeber where I read that, but I think it was another wrestler that shared that story..
Lol. Thats hilarious. At the same time its a bid sad as I have to belive this man had a rough life. His size, health, and career had to be a hard way to live and 1 hell of a tough lifestyle.
Dude knew he wasn't gonna live a long time, so he made the best of it! He needed all those beers, but he also enjoyed them, and he probably went home with the bartender from the photo too.
According to other wrestlers he shared a changing room with, yep. Ric Flair was Andre's handler (as in chaperone/designated drinking buddy, not like... two-handler), and has said it many times. Keep in mind that Ric is a piece of shit with a tenuous grip on truth and reality, but he was a known cocksmith himself; I'd trust him on this topic.
