Haystacks Calhoun

A household name at the peak of his popularity, Haystacks Calhouns uncommon girth made him a major boxoffice attraction throughout the 1950s and 60s. Born in Morgans Corner, Ark., in 1934, the 600pounder stayed true to his farm boy roots during his career, sporting a white Tshirt and blue overalls in battles against rivals like Mr. Fuji and the 800pound Happy Humphrey. This unique look made the behemoth a sensation in many different promotions, but his biggest success in WWE came in 1973 when he captured the World Tag Team Championships with Tony Garea, making him the heaviest man to ever hold that title.
