Do you guys remember Wright Thompson's feature about Helmet Man, the Egyptian National who emigrated to the US, became a witness for the first WTC bombing, and was then eventually relocated to KC, where he became a Chiefs Superfan? Eventually, the FO found out his identity, and after other legal and financial dustups, they took away his season tickets.
Additional layer of irony: the two main guys he testified against were in Leavenworth and Springfield, and they plopped him down basically right between the two of them.
