Jordan hasn't verbally committed to playing the game, but he was sighted Monday morning at Mimi's Cafe in Orem.

Why would he go to Mimi's? Hankering for some meatloaf?

It's just as plausible someone in Utah County mistook a black man with a shaved head for MJ.

That's where you're wrong. There are no black men in Utah county.

Exactly. So when one happens to be seen there, he's automatically mistaken for a basketball player.

"Honey.. look... over there, who is that?"

I was walking out of class today at UVU and two guys were selling tickets to the Flash game tonight. I asked if MJ was gonna be there and he said sure thing. So I bought two tickets. If this is just a ploy to sell tickets I'm gonna be pissed.

Obvious pub stunt. Flash owner seems like a bit of a wank- recall the quote "I'll give Fes a ride to games in my Ferarri".

Minor leagues are all about the marketing and gimicks.

The youtube clips looks fishy. It looks like him but does he really go around and eats with body guards? If so, he is a bigger douche than I thought.

That is lame.

A celebrity on the level of Jordan would need guards.

Especially in Utah.

I like Mimi's but it's still a regular chain. And especially outside of Utah. Utah the worst he'd have to worry about is constant autograph seekers.

Depending on how paranoid he is he could worry about some nutjob Jazz fan who hates him from the good ol' days.

That was the best thing I've seen in a while. That dude is awesome, totally didn't expect that.

UPDATE: FAKE!

I bet they'll have this look-alike take on B-Russ at the game.
