NBA’s most flamboyant personality returned to his old stomping grounds in style. And he was not alone. Dennis Rodman was in the Windy City for Chicago Signing Day. He was arguably one of the biggest sports stars at the event. But it was his arm candy that stole all the attention. He shared snippets from the awesome event on his YouTube channel he shares with his girlfriend, Yella Yella.
Rodman and Yella Yella’s relationship has been raising more than a few brows for different reasons. Other than the musician being 31 years younger than her NBA legend boyfriend, ‘The Worm’ surprised a few people by getting her image tattooed on his face. The odd but romantic couple was quite the pair at Chicago Signing Day.
