Special bond between Hakeem Olajuwon and myself
Posted: Sat Apr 19, 2014 5:28 am
Ive been seeing Hakeem Olajuwon at the local mosque for over 20 years... And I've never thought of it as a big deal. I'm a diehard Olajuwon and Rockets fan... Born and raised in Houston. Since I was about 5 I've been meeting/seeing Olajuwon on a regular basis (I'm 26 now)... At Muslim-related events mostly (my family is Muslim, growing up I was too, kind of). Anyway, never once got his autograph or took a picture with him (is that weird?), I only shake his hand and he usually gives me a hug. Im cool like that
Just thought I'd share. My dad met him again today so I decided, hell, why not share it?
