Brutus Beefcake's Cocaine Triggers Beantown Anthrax Scare

Greatest story I've heard in a long time. I heard this on Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me and I'm surprised it's not already all over the blogosphere.

Former WWF pro wrestler Brutus "the Barber" Beefcake (aka Ed Leslie) was working as a fare collector for the Boston subway system. Someone spotted white powder in a fare collector's booth and thought it was anthrax, so the authorities ordered the Downtown Crossing station evacuated. Turns out the white powder was Brutus' "bag" of blow. Sadly, Brutus lost his job and is now in rehab.

And I always thought pro wrestling was a such clean and sober sport. Brutus' blunder is likely to give the sport a black eye.
