763. The only guy to ever bench Michael Jordon.
About this episode
Joey Corona shares his humorous experience of being the only person to bench Michael Jordon and their lasting friendship.
It's true. Joey Corona was the only guy to ever bench Michael Jordon. Joey was in charge of booking Norwegian Cruise Lines with the top, premier American Athletes. The athletes would come on board to be interviewed and share their stories with the guests. Michael Jordon had just finished his rookie year with the Chicago Bulls and he and teammate Rod Higgins joined the SS Norway. Joey tells the very funny story how he benched Michael and their friendship that developed for years. That fellowship developed on the golf course as Michel never beat Joey in a round of golf. The picture is with Rod Higgins on the left, Joey with the microphone, and Michael Jordon on the right.
