In the run-up to Seb Coe's London Olympics, there's much talk of the role performance enhancing drugs play in modern-day sport. But howsabout a little more attn to the role performance inhibiting (recreational) drugs have played in sport? Check out the late Dock Ellis recount how he threw a no-hitter in 1970 while high as a Georgie pine on LSD and a cocktail of amphetamines.
"It was easier to pitch with the LSD 'cos I was so used to medicating myself"
