Getting the autograph was totally unprofessional (as I was a reporter) but it was the last day of the internship, so I was getting the autographed ball. MJ was actually pretty chilled, easy to talk to. He and Joe Dumars were just regular dudes.

....I think the ball's in a closet off of my family room.
How much do you think that ball is worth? Probably a lot, huh?
