Sports history is filled with legendary figures known for their incredible talent, dedication, and achievements. However, there are also those athletes who have made a name for themselves for their notorious and debaucherous lifestyles. From cheating scandals to wild partying, these athletes have left a mark on the sports world for their infamous behavior.
Tiger Woods -
When it comes to scandals, Tiger Woods is a pro. This golfing legend hit the headlines in 2009 when his extramarital affairs came to light, revealing that he had quite the "driving" record off the course too. And if that wasn't enough, Woods has also faced legal troubles for driving under the influence. Talk about a double bogey! Despite his short comings America still seems to have a love hate relationship with Tiger!
John Daly -
Move over, Animal House, because John Daly is here to take the crown for being the ultimate party animal. This golfer is rarely seen without a cigarette in one hand and a beer in the other, playing the sport as originally intended. With a lifestyle that can rival a rockstar, Daly has become the poster child for golf's degenerates and people who gave up on caring about their bodies years ago. If there's a party happening, you can bet Daly is in the middle of it, ripping darts and downing drinks like a pro!
Dustin Johnson -
While most golfers are concerned about the weather, Dustin Johnson has a different kind of "precipitation" in mind when on the greens. Rumor has it that he's not just hitting balls on the golf course, but also hitting the slopes with some stimulants in tow. "Ripping a Dustin Johnson" has become a term in the golf world for indulging in some recreational use stimmys while on the golf course. Talk about getting an edge in the game!
Dennis Rodman -
When it comes to degeneracy no man does it better than Dennis Rodman. This former basketball player is known for his colorful personality, eccentric behavior, and wild partying ways. From his unique hairstyles to his piercings and tattoos, Rodman is a walking, talking party machine. And who else can boast of being a go-to guy for North Korea negotiations? Rodman's life is a slam dunk in the world of sports debauchery!
Wade Boggs -
Move over, regardless of who you are, because Wade Boggs has you beat! This former baseball player holds the record for reportedly chugging a whopping 107 beers during a single flight. Boggs' legendary drinking stories have become the stuff of legends, earning him the title of the "Sultan of Suds." Looks like he was swinging for the fences in the drinking game. Of course I would take this one with a grain of salt if there's anything the older generation is known for accurate record keeping and truthful accountability aren't exactly the first things that come to mind.
There you have it, folks, a glimpse into the wild and scandalous lives of some of the biggest degenerates in sports history. Cheers!
