#5 A dogged pursuit
During his wheelin' dealin', kiss- stealin' days, Ric Flair lived a life of excess that mirrored his on-screen persona. It was during one of those alcohol-heavy nights that he saw fit to invite his friend, Terry Funk, over to his place to down a couple of bottles.
Flair's then-wife (he's had 3 since) had gone out for a bit, leaving the men to their own devices. When she came back, however, she realised just how big a folly that had been.
Ric Flair was lying unconscious in a pool of his own vomit and Terry Funk, kitchen knife safely nestled in his mouth, was chasing their dog around in the backyard on all fours - butt naked!
Apparently, the dog had bitten him on the nose and Funk, employing his mental faculties to the best of his ability in that heavily inebriated state, decided that he simply had to get even come what may.
Oh, and did I mention? Terry Funk also happened to be the World Champion then. Sigh.
