Ex-Wrestler Causes Anthrax Scare
As stated in this Boston Herald article...
Brutus Beefcake, former top wrestler and life-long friend of Hulk Hogan, caused an anthrax scare last night in Boston. Beefcake, real name Ed Leslie, had been working as a fare collector at a subway and left a bag of cocaine unattended. The first assumption by those who found it was that the powder was anthrax. Leslie later admitted that the powder was cocaine and that it was his.
This is a great story to pass on to those friends who have that wrestling pipe dream...even after you've made it and sold out shows etc, you can still wind up a coke-snorting fare collector who nobody has any respect for.
But seriously, would you ever have thought that this guy did drugs?

I just can't believe we have (had?) a real, washed up WWF wrestler working in our subway system. I may have bought tokens from Brutus 'the Barber' Beefcake!

Damn right Rafuzo!!! The Barber's been underground right here in bean town and I don't know. I'd go point at him through the glass. "Mr. Beefcack can I have your autograph, and could I get two tokens. Thanks!"
Seriously though, he was my favorite wrester when I was a kid.

The man was a genuis. He had on of the best gimmicks of all time. When Undertaker cut his hair they should have brought Brutus out of retirement.
