Dennis Rodman was a party animal during his heyday. So much so that people once bet on him to die in Las Vegas! But for the international man of the people, it all came to fruition when he met Kim Jong-Un and the North Korean leader invited him to a drinking game.

Prime Dennis Rodman was part man, part err, alcohol? We don’t know. All we know is, he woke up grabbed rebounds, won championships, and then at night, he partied.
His habits are legendary and are a salient reminder that fast life can be dangerous. Rodman lost almost all his wealth, but his reputation and status are still as powerful as ever. He now hangs out with the likes of Kim Jong-Un. Your favorite player could never do that.

Dennis Rodman and Kim Jong Un played “Vodka Games”
So, as per the story, of which we basically know nothing, Dennis Rodman said,
“We had 80, 90 people there. We had a good time playing that one game. This shot game, this vodka game. We had vodka bottles this high… there’s (are) about 50 bottles of vodka around the table…. Then we’d drink that for a day. We had tequila one day, we had this other stuff one day. They like to have fun, too. But in their own little way. But it’s like… when they do it, it’s like Russian Roulette!”
Yes, that sounds about right. North Koreans drinking till the break of dawn. And of course, to bear witness, Dennis Rodman was there. And he gave us some insight.
Of course, Dennis never did reveal everything, because of the fact that it was Kim Jong-Un, a dictator, no less. We are just surprised to learn that these games were so intense.
How Rodman became an international diplomat?
Dennis’ visit to North Korea was nothing short of eye-opening. The USA got to learn about several things through Rodman. The most startling of which was that Kim Jong-Un had a daughter.
The Bulls legend gave us her name, and until recently nobody was really sure of her existence. Rodman also helped facilitate the first-ever cultural exchange between the US and North Korea.
The reason why the two nations are not embroiled in a cold war and are by all diplomatic means, in neutrality with each other is due to Dennis. A true diplomat. And a great party liaison.
