Last night I was on a red-eye from Vegas to Hartford with a connection in Minny. I met several Iowa State fans on that plane and they were cool people....very big fans of their program.
As I was walking to my seat in a haze of fatigue I noticed a familiar face but I was too tired to figure out who it was. Once we landed at Bradley I ran into the guy in the men's room. I guess my brain was starting to work and it dawned on me the guy was a ball player. So I broke bathroom etiquette (near the sinks not the stalls) and asked him if we knew each other. Before he could answer....it clicked. He said I played at Ohio St.....I said " you are Maurice Clarett." To which he said yes. We had a brief chat and I left. Nice dude and ironically I met Robert Parrish near that same bathroom a few years back.
