      HE GOT GAME.
      JAKE : “AHHH… HAHAHAHA HAAA” !
      SALESMAN : “THESE ARE THE NEW AIR JORDANS.”
      JAKE : “YEA.. HOW MUCH THESE COST MAN?”
      SALESMAN : “$139. ONE FITY WITH TAX.”
      JAKE : “ONE FITY? WHERE THE HOLES AT?”

      To this day it is still Buggin' Out. After all these years. That's still the best shoe moment in cinema. My son cracks up over that scene as well. "Yooo!" lol. And then when the instigators start razzing him about his Jordan's being F'd up. Classic stuff right there.
      Peace to all and stay safe.

    I graduated from Clark Atlanta University as a Mass Comm major and Spike Lee would come to our department all the time to talk to friends of his that were professors. One professor knew i was into sneakers and i would never forget walking into the department and them saying Spike was here. I ran back to my room and grabbed my Spizikes that at the time just were originally released. I got him to sign the hang tag and the shoe. He was such a cool guy and was shocked i had a pair on me out of the blue. Lol. This was before camera phones (well at least for me) i wish i had a picture to hold the memory

This brotha created the iconic and very popular Michael Jordan, Morris Blackmon ad campaign during the 80’s. The character was from his first movie “she’s gotta have it”. I had the pleasure of sitting next to Spike at Super Bowl 25! We all know Soike is a huge knocks fan. He’s also a huge Giants fan! Great guy, we had so much fan. A time I will never forget! Much respect and continued success to the ICON living Mr. Spike Lee.
