Cos is under fire. Wilt gets a stamp. Go figure.

[BunnySlippers]

Wasn’t Wilt kind of a sleeze ball? Or am I just remembering his house?

If sleeping with more than 10 thousand women is a sleeze ball...then yes. :-)

[txnativegop]

Will the stamp say “Wilt the Stilt”? just asking . . .

I gotta start thinking faster, everyone keeps beating me to it--this was my first thought exactly.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Exactly. Wilt claimed to lay more peener pipe than any living man and Coz is trying to downplay whatever the he11 he did. #confused

[thackney]

Will it look like this?

[Carpe Cerevisi]

The 7’1” long sheets each contain 10,000 stamps (or 20,000 depending on who you believe).

I met the man, he was a jerk and a pig and the hookers hated him.

[Mercat]

Mr. Mercat was in the LHS pep band when he was playing at KU and got to go to a lot of games. He says that when Wilt was coming in for a layup, that entire end of the field house pulled back. He also watched him bowl back when they still used pin boys. Wilt would bring the ball back and up so far it touched the ceiling. He would first though yell at the pin boys to get out of the way and then literally throw the ball the entire length of the lane.

I thought you had to be dead twenty years before they would put you on a stamp.

[Red Badger]

Michael Brown next?...............Trayvon?..............

[MIchaelTArchangel]

Maybe they can put Bill Cosby on the stamp with Wilt.

[Veggie Todd]

That’s one stamp I wouldn’t want to lick.

[OrangeHoof]

I hope they make the Wilt stamp seven inches tall.

[OldNewYork]

Everyone in every sequel to Conan the Barbarian should get their own postage stamp.

[353FMG]

But he should be excused because there were ten thousand women willing to crawl in the sack with him.

Will the stamp say “Wilt the Stilt”?

He hated that name, preferred to be called “The Big Dipper”. Thanks!

[Rodamala]

I have no need for any other stamp EVER after they released these:

...though these are nice ones too:

...but if they came out with a Milton Friedman Forever stamp I would stock up on them, for sure.
