    Michael Jordan: he still owes me that 75 cents | Part one

    The 1990s were a different time. You could smoke on planes, recite your best friend’s phone number, and get noshed off in the Oval Office.

    And the biggest star on the planet was a tight-fisted genius from Teachy, North Carolina: Michael Jordan.

    He broke bread with drug barons, paid off his mistresses and lost $100k on a game of  rock paper scissors.

    From cocaine in the dressing room to measuring his son’s knob, this is his story…
