Fidel Castro was a hotshot pitcher in his youth. He and his bride took a three month honeymoon in the US in 1948, including a trip to NYC. Though it was never confirmed, he was rumored to have had a tryout with the Yankees. Can you imagine: The future nonstop denouncer of "Yanquis" wearing Yankee pinstripes? lol


Ntra la porta tua lu sangu � sparsu,
E nun me mporta si ce muoru accisu...
E s'iddu muoru e vaju mparadisu
Si nun ce truovo a ttia, mancu ce trasu.
