Ayre Apologist First Casualty of Bodog Fight VancouverMichael Cash, the proprietor of TheSpread.com became the first casualty of Bodog Fight Season 7. Cash, who was invited to cover the filming of Bodog Fight, was forced to surrender his passport and wallet to Canadian Customers officers Thursday.
In 1998, Mr. Cash choked a Canadian Mounty in Windsor, Canada.
"He came up from behind me and I thought he was a security guard so I put him in a chokehold," argued Cash, whose organization was one of a handful thrown in to cover the new series.
Cash, who bares an uncanny resemblance to Uncle Fester from the Addams Family, was permitted to stay in Vancouver overnight but was ordered out of the country first thing Friday morning.
Canadian officials declared him "unfit to enter the country".
The entire Bodog Fight shooting appears to have been hexed. Gambling911.com's own publisher, Christopher Costigan, was caught up in the severe weather that struck the Chicago area Thursday afternoon and just barely made it into Vancouver minus his luggage. But at least he can stay.
Gambling911.com will begin providing coverage from the Bodog Fight series starting Saturday.
