Maharaja Bhupendra Singh of Patiala (1670-1733) - 365 wives
Once said, "wine, fish, meat, alcohol and plenty of sex
was good for the soul." A toweringly handsome Sikh with a
colorful personality, he was famed for his sexual prowess
and appetite and forever on the lookout for pretty women,
even going so far as to kidnap them when they refused his
overtures. Every evening he would light 365 lanterns around
his palace, each with the name of one of his wives inscribed
on it. The wife whose lamp went out first would be his for
the night. For leap years, he'd take the night off.
