The six-time NBA champion loves spending time in the country, with Jordan and George Clooney sighted on a boat in Italy last year, but this wasn’t a pleasant experience for the 60-year-old.
Jordan did not even acknowledge the fans and just kept walking. You can understand that the Chicago Bulls icon might have been annoyed by it and just wanted to be left alone as he minded his own business.
Most celebrities in his situation really would have done the same there.
This trend of making goat noises interestingly might have caught fire thanks to certain players on the Los Angeles Lakers. Earlier this year, some Lakers players made goat noises behind LeBron James during his locker room interview.
LeBron certainly found it to be quite funny, and his teammates kept at it in some of his later interviews as well. Teammates or friends doing it is one thing, though, and strangers doing the same is another.
Michael Jordan Spoke About Being Called The GOAT
Jordan is widely regarded as the GOAT after winning six championships, six Finals MVPs, and five MVPs, and we can just go on and on when listing his accomplishments.
The man himself, though, doesn’t believe it to be the case. Jordan explained he can’t be called the GOAT, as he doesn’t think anyone can be given that title.
Jordan believes you can’t compare players from different eras and thinks the debates are just for PR and selling stories.
He makes a very fair point on the eras, and it really makes it difficult to accurately compare players. That isn’t going to stop the debates, though, and they will rage on till the end of time.
