Following an uproarious dinner celebrating Michigan State's victory over Penn in the 1978 Final Four with John Smith, T2000, Larry Bird, Johnny Bench, and Red Grange, King, after imbibing too much homemade hooch and Nectar, decided to tell a recently penned joke involving three of his friends. Having just seen Irving "Magic" Johnson dominate Ivy League two guards half his size for forty minutes, Brody concocted an off color joke so delicious it had to be told post haste. However, unbeknownst to King, Tesla was standing right behind him (donning a Katzenmoyer jersey of course) when he asked the members of his table, "What do AZT, Rasputin, and Tesla have in common? Puzzled, Larry Bird quipped aloud, "What's AZT?" to which King responded "Sshhhh!" Sensing an inappropriate, room-clearing punchline, the remaining members of King's table hurriedly dispersed without being noticed. King's attention had momentarily been shifted to his ringing iPhone which was blaring the latest Dead Man's Bones single "Almost Kate Hudson." On the other line was Princess Di (who King had begun referring to in certain circles as "Princess Dead") and King decided not to answer; instead he revealed to his now empty table that he was working on putting together a Ryan Gosling tribute band tentatively called "Where's my nomination?" With only Tesla listening, King now uttered the answer to his previous query. "They only work on black Magic!" Tesla instantly decried, "I am a man of science, not magic!" King responded by throwing a Hutch football at Tesla's temple, resulting in Tesla summoning his black magic powers to revive himself. The Hutch, a gift given to King by Farrah Fawcett on her wedding day, landed in the diving outstretched arms of a late arriving Al Toon. When he came to, Tesla remarked, "Where's my Vrabel jersey?"
