He went on to explain that he was at a party when Tyson approached him and asked if he had any cocaine.
“I told him, ‘Yeah, dude, I got a bunch.’ And I did. I had a whole eightball in one pocket, half an eightball in the other pocket,” he explained. “So we locked ourselves in this bathroom. He asked me for a cigarette while I was chopping up blow on the counter.”
