==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*As part of an Australia Zoo conservation and tracking program, a wild crocodile has been named after Ben Gold, thanks to a successful community fundraising organized to celebrate his victory at Battle Arena Melbourne 11 using only King K. Rool.<ref>https://www.australiazoo.com.au/conservation/projects/tracking/crocodiles.php?id=192#Ben%20Gold. </ref>
*Before {{Trn|Expand Gong 4}}, Mr. L was famously taken into police custody for presumably being out too late and he was held in custody until the Expand Gong tournament organisers utilised the event's prize pool as bail money.
