Michael Jordan is competing again. That’s right, the GOAT is back in competition, but not on the hardwoods, this time he took the heat to a different sport. MJ was spotted in Morehead City, North Carolina ahead of the annual Big Rock Blue Marlin Fishing Tournament.
Jordan’s boat, “The Catch 23” was spotted in the Morehead City Yacht Basin on Monday morning, the first day of the tournament. The Big Rock is one the largest and oldest sport fishing tournaments in the US and people from all the country travel to N.C. for a full week.
MJ isn’t the exception and he made sure to go there in style. HauloverInlet.com describes his Catch 23 fishing vessel as “built for the ultra rich”. It has several rooms, a washer and dryer, full lounge, salon and all of the necessary items for a fishing boat.
As soon as he appeared at Morehead, he drew all the attention.
