In 2002, the Golden Boot transferred Houston Nutt back to the Hyborian Age where he spent nearly 100 years becoming the King of Uruk. His adventures were later chronicled in The Epic of Gilgamesh. The Boot returned him in time for The Cotton Bowl.

Sting tells people he achieved a tantric orgasm through intense meditation but it actually happened because Stewart Copeland tried to incorporate The Golden Boot into his percussion set while making Zenyatta Mondatta.
