Known to fans and foes alike as "The Spaceman," Bill Lee was a big league outcast who touted Eastern philosophy, defended Maoist China, and claimed he sprinkled marijuana on his buckwheat pancakes in the morning - the THC thus making him impervious to bus fumes while jogging to work at Boston's Fenway Park. Late in his career, fans in Montreal threw him hash from the stands. He even partied with George W. Bush.
"Back in '73, we rolled a couple of doobies and smoked them together," Lee told Montreal Gazette prior to the 2000 presidential election. "And I can tell you, he definately inhaled."
Thank you High Times for the words of wisdom.
