Ric Flair 30 For 30: 15 Things We Learned
5. He Once Flew Between Japan Three Times In 2.5 Days
Of all the crazy stories of Flair pushing himself to the physical limit, one of the most wince-inducing combines his love of alcohol with an insane travel schedule.
Flair said, "I have done everything wrong to myself. I went back and forth to Japan three times in two-and-a-half days and I drank all the way, thirteen hours, all three ways. I got off the plane, got to the ring and had to wrestle an hour."
Quite why Flair had to travel back-and-forth between countries in such a short space of time is anyone's guess, but in his defense, can anyone blame him for wanting to drink after spending so much time in planes over such a brief period?
