Recalling the league’s reaction, Rodman said that the league didn’t know how to deal with his bold nature. He revealed that the Commissioner of the NBA once threatened to kick him out of the league if he got more tattoos and piercings. However, the threat had no effect on the Worm as he went and did exactly what he was told not to.

“Really? Okay, great there you go. I kept getting more piercings, more tattoos and they started accepting it you know,” said Rodman.
