I had season tickets to the Jazz for 15 years so I met Karl Malone a few times, He was really nice every time I talked to him, But the best one was when he had his store on 7th east 2100 south, I went in there to look at basketball shoes and he was there being mobed by a bunch of kids, so I just looked at some shoes, He walked up behind me and asked if he could help me, Shook my hand. I said I wanted to buy the same shoe he happened to be playing in, looked at my feet and said size 13? He was right! Said he'd be right back. He laced then up for me and put them on my feet!!! I couldn't believe that part! I had to buy them! He signed the shoes and the box, And gave me a signed hat for my wife saying that now I'd be safe after buying a hundred dollar pair of shoes! He was really funny, and gave all the kids autographed stuff... Will post pics later...
