Yeah yeah, I know. Larry has far more than 50 great moments. But for the sake of this post, I share with you, this video (not made by me).
I got to meet Mr. Bird when then All Star game was in Seattle. Being a dopey teenager with dreams of being an NBA star, it was a forgettable moment for him, but a moment I will remember forever. My dad even bought one of the red white and blue “bonus balls” from the 3 point shootout that they ended up selling after the competition.
Thanks for the memories Larry Bird.
