Boxing king Muhammad Ali arrives in Britain-and finds his famous shuffle too slow to cope
Boxing king Muhammad Ali arrives in Britain-and finds his famous shuffle too slow to cope with airline schedules.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we witness the iconic boxing legend Muhammad Ali arriving in Britain with his family. The year is 1977, and the heavyweight champ has just landed in London from Chicago. However, as fate would have it, even the fastest shuffle in the world couldn't keep up with airline schedules. Accompanied by his wife Veronica, daughter Hana, and an astonishing 27 suitcases, Ali's jet arrived late at its destination. Determined to catch their connecting flight to Newcastle, they embarked on a frantic sprint through the airport corridors. But alas! Despite their valiant efforts, they missed their intended flight. This candid snapshot captures a moment of vulnerability for Ali - a man known for his lightning-fast footwork inside the ring. It serves as a reminder that even champions face challenges beyond their control. The image transports us back to the vibrant atmosphere of the 1970s when Cassius Clay transformed into Muhammad Ali and became an international sports icon. It encapsulates both the glamour and unpredictability of travel during that era. As we gaze upon this photograph today, we are reminded that behind every larger-than-life figure lies a human being who must navigate life's hurdles just like anyone else – even if those hurdles happen to be airline schedules.
