Muhammad Ali D-Con Roach Trap

Sometimes we do things we aren’t proud of at the time or it may take several years later to realize what we may have done to ruin our esteem and legacy.   I did not think Muhammad Ali had anything that would resemble skeletons in his closet that would make my childhood (and adulthood) idol look cheap but I WAS WRONG!!!! Ali was the spokesman for the D-Con Roach Trap.  Apparently, (and this must be a part of my childhood I blacked-out),   Ali endorsed everything he could such as liquor decanters and potato chips  when he was nearing the end of his boxing career.  Remember these commercials aired around the time of his Leon Spinks

This is the way I remember Ali
