‘Fan man’ disrupts boxing match
Riddick Bowe and Evander Holyfield were in the midst of their heavyweight title fight in Las Vegas when an unwanted guest hit the ring in 1993. In the seventh round, after circling Caesars Palace, someone on a powered paraglider suddenly crashed into the ring. “Fan Man” was born. James Miller’s paraglider lines became entangled in the stadium’s overhead lights, leading to the awkward landing. The fight was delayed 21 minutes while Miller was first beaten unconscious by security and others at ringside, then rushed to the hospital.
