Playboy Magazine founder Hugh Hefner died Wednesday at the age of 91.
In remembrance of the robed-one, let’s look back at one of the greatest sports gossip stories ever: the time Hefner permanently banned legendary UCLA QB Cade McNown from the Playboy Mansion.
As reported by T.J. Simers of The Los Angeles Times:
The way the story goes, he was a regular mansion visitor until he broke up the triplets–maybe the single biggest love tale in years. It seems McNown ran off with Brande, who along with Sandy and Mandy had been sharing Hugh Hefner.
It’s just Hef, to me, of course, but it seems McNown slipped Brande Roderick right from under the big guy’s robe, and took her to Mexico, and when he heard about it, he came flying out of his slippers.
“You should have been at the mansion when Hef found out about that,” said an e-mailer with enviable insight. “Since then, as you know, Brande went to Hawaii to appear on ‘Baywatch.’ But the whole McNown affair was the last straw with her and Hef. And Hef has barred McNown from the mansion.”
The lesson here? Never F with Hef.
