The Forum Shops at Caesar's Palace got a surprise guest Friday afternoon from the former undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.

The sound of his name is still polarizing to sports fans around the world, and the very sight of Iron Mike Tyson made people stop and look.

The former champ is in town to help promote a charity walk he'll take part in on April 30th, 2008 to benefit disabled veterans of the Iraq War, and there are many right here in the city Tyson once called home.

The charity walk will begin at city hall on Fremont Street and will run for 8 miles up Las Vegas Blvd., ending at Nellis Air Force Base. A trust fund has been established for donations.
