9/20 - AWAY GAME DAY: ND @ Mich St.

Jordan and I basically just hang out in NYC today. We actually looked at coming back early but really didn't have the option to do so.

We ended up joining Ken & Dale at MIckey Mantle's, a restaurant across from Central Park that I think the former Yankee actually owned. While we were there we could have gotten the autographs from Mantle & Martin. Ok, no not Mickey Mantle - he's dead. And no, not Billy Martin - he, too, is dead. Instead we could have had the autographs of their sons! What the hell is that about?? Why would anyone do that? Selling autographs because your father is famous without you being famous at all doesn't seem like it'd be a big revenue generator. I guess some people will take 'fame' anywhere and any place they can find. Gee, next time I am in Chicago I'll have to see if I can get Michael Jordan's son's autograph!

As for the rest of the day, really not so much action. Jordan needed to study and didn't want to really do anything. And since the ND MSU game was being broadcast on ABC, we hung out in the hotel room. Me to watch the Irish stink up the place angainst MSU and he to do his homework.
