Wake Up With Ken Griffey Jr Making A Fan's Day With An Autograph

Love seeing Ken Griffey Jr, all around nice guy, making fans days with his autograph. He was as big as big could get in 1993, so naturally everyone wanted The Kid's sig. Sometimes those fans just happen to be a top 2 NBA player of all time. Even Michael Jordan, who was at the 1993 All Star Game in Baltimore had to get in on The Kid. Jordan butts into one of Jr's media sessions and kindly asks for him to sign a bat. Later on Griffey promptly asks MJ for the jersey right off his back. Jordan didn't even think about saying no, he ripped that thing off, signed it and gave it to Griffey. Kind of goes to show how damn big Griffey was back then, he had MJ running around a locker room like a child looking for his autograph. Always pretty neat to see big time athletes interact like this. Happy he could make Mike's day.
