It was somewhat common knowledge in the 1970s and 80s that Pete Rose had a string of illegitimate children from coast-to-coast. He had a paternity suit array that would make a rock star proud. His womanizing became a true public spectacle by 1984, when he impregnated and married his Philadelphia Eagle cheerleader girlfriend.

Rose also was caught smuggling cash from Japanese autograph shows and selling memorabilia that was reported stolen or sold fraudulently claiming they were used in milestone games.

Pete is infamous for good reason. And his illustrious rampage was rather well-known while he was still in his prime and while he managed.
