During the Hotboxin’ podcast hosted by Mike Tyson, former NBA player and Hall of Famer Dennis Rodman revealed the story behind his first meeting with Kim Jong-un.<\/p>\n
‘When I first met him (Kim Jong Un), I was with the Harlem Globetrotters and I wasn’t playing so some people ask me to come with them. I think I’m going to jail, right. I said: ‘What the f*** did I do in America?'”<\/p>\n
‘I walked up to the stands and sit in front of a desk. There are all these king-style chairs, like 20 of them. Next thing I know, 22,000 North Koreans all stand up and start clapping,’ he said. <\/p>\n
‘It was loud clapping and they’re cheering and I’m thinking they were doing it for me. So I wave and someone tells me: ‘No, that’s for him’ and points at Kim Jong Un. I asked ‘Who is that guy?’ and they told me ‘that’s our leader’, so I asked… ‘leader of what?’<\/p>\n
‘We sat there talking about basketball the whole time. The game finishes and then he says ‘We’d love you to come back, we enjoy your company. Let’s have dinner tonight, a little karaoke and have some vodka, some hotties’ and stuff like that.’<\/p>\n
‘Next thing I know, we are having dinner and we are drunk as s***, he starts singing karaoke and I have no clue what the f*** he’s talking about. Everyone starts clapping and then he has this 18-piece girl band come out and these girls are hot but they just played one song. Just one f****** song. It was the theme from Dallas.’<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
