Don King Arrives in SGF 30 Minutes After His Hair

King’s hair arrives early for the fight

Springfield, MO – Don King’s hair arrived at the Springfield Branson Airport a full 30 minutes before the legendary boxing promoter. King was scheduled to arrive yesterday but was delayed when he leaned backwards and his hair fell 2 time zones behind him.

“Only in America can a man be in 3 time zones at once, due to the height of his hair,” proclaimed King. Once King arrived, Hammon’s Tower became the second tallest structure in the Ozarks. King will be in town to promote Willard native and #3 WBO world rated Cruiserweight BJ Flores this weekend.

“Get a Shiner at the Shriner” is the event’s moniker and resonates such engaging fights such as “The Thrilla in Manilla” and “Rumble in the Jungle” that King made famous. The event will be held at the Shrine Mosque where Prince Hall Freemason, King, secured the venue only after considering other locations that would have been billed, “Fistacuffs at Fassnight Park,” “The Donnybrook at Digiacinto’s,” and the “Pounding at Incredible Pizza”.

Flores has said, “Don, and more importantly his hair, bring a level of instant recognition that gives this fight card instant credibility. Springfield will be in for a real treat this weekend as Don’s hair will be an amazing site. I mean, the fights will be good too, but man…that hair is awesome.” Flores is pre-suing King for the fight purse money he is sure to be denied for the weekend fight.
