As a KK member pointed out in the forum, Evel Knievel passed away today after a long illness.
How about these quotes via Esquire…
You can fall many times in life, but you’re never a failure as long as you try to get up.
Loving someone doesn’t mean that you can love her for six days and then beat the crap out of her on the seventh.
Women are the root of all evil. I ought to know. I’m Evel.
more and check out a video below where he jumped 50 cars…
Evel Knievel definitely has a hockey tie in, too. He loved the game, and before he became “Evel,” he attempted a career as a professional. Home sickness had him return to Butte, where he continued on with the game before getting into car sales, then stunt bikes.
The Hockey News had a great piece on his hockey career a few weeks back.
