Mike Tyson grows some wings

Just when you thought you saw the last of Mike Tyson he somehow pops up in the media again. Who saw him coming in 'The Hangover'? As random as you think that is wait till you hear this one. Apparently Tyson is getting his own reality show on Animal Planet about racing his pigeons. Yes you read that right, Mike Tyson is getting a show about racing the 'flying rats' of New York City. Now I had no idea you could race a pigeon, but apparently it is an actual sport. http://www.pigeon.org/
Now why pick Mike Tyson to be in the show? Who really knows the logic behind this one haha. I think it is just another way for Tyson to wedge his way into pop culture today if only for a few weeks. He was on Yahoo's list of biggest fortunes lost a few weeks ago, so maybe he needs the money. Whatever the reason for the show, I know that it is going to be hilarious and I do intend on watching at least one episode.
