HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Tim Nwachukwu / Getty Dennis Rodman is most certainly cemented in the annals of history as an NBA legend as evidenced by his championships and awards.

Eddie Vedder and Dennis Rodman Once Flew to Vegas and Back Just to See Jane’s Addiction

Eddie Vedder is a devoted Chicago Bulls fan and Dennis Rodman listened to Pearl Jam while working out, so it was only a matter of time before the two became friends. During a recent chat with Bill Simmons, Vedder detailed his “long, long, deep friendship” with the eccentric NBA star and told a crazy story where the two flew to Vegas and back just to see Jane’s Addiction. The Bulls were in Seattle to play the Supersonics, and Vedder was hanging out at the Four Seasons with the team when Rodman’s security guard George took out three plane tickets. “Jane’s Addiction is playing in Vegas,” Rodman said. “And I’m like, Jesus Christ, it’s like fuckin’ 6 o’clock,” Vedder recalled. “He’s like, ‘We’ll get there by 9, they don’t go on until 9:30.” The Bulls coach Phil Jackson liked Vedder because...
