  • www.sneakerwatc... - Imagine if all of the sneakers from your collection worth thousands of dollars went up in flames? There would probably be no coming back from such a loss. Fortunately for Mayor that wasn't the case, and in this exclusive the famous sneakerhead reveals to us how he did almost lose his collection in a fire.
    Not only did we get the inside scoop on that close call with his collection nearly going up in flames, but he also discussed how he acquired his Nike Air Mags through an auction for the Michael J. Fox Foundation, and for a reasonable price. Even with all of the resources Mayor has, he still buys sneakers for a good cause.
    Check out the rest of video above to hear the full interview.

      +Jakob Brandt Right??? I am by no means a sneaker head. I know nothing about sneakers I don't even like Nike shoes. But I just like listening to the guy talk sneakers.

    Not tryna be funny but Mayor seems like he was the type of kid back in the days that had all the cool toys/G.I. Joe's or whatever but when you and the lil' neighborhood homies came to his house he wouldn't let you play with any of his toys because he had them all lined up and displayed in his room, probably still in the box too.
    Then when you'd pick up on it you would tease him by picking up one and playing keep away from him in his room while he was running around crying, "stop it guys, it isn't funny, you're gonna ruin the resale value on it. Cut it out...quit iiiit! Mooooom! ....."

    • @Graffitiluva
      @Graffitiluva 9 лет назад

      Shannon James They were all good to a degree but 1 because it was epic to see the delorean pull out and them testing it at a mall to see if it works. 2 I liked because the hovering cars/skateboard,Mags with auto laces and the future. 3 to me was fun I guess but not the best out of the 3 tho it was cool to see a train time machine at the end haha but seeing the Delorean crushed by a train hurt to see.

    • @shannonjames5
      @shannonjames5 9 лет назад

      Graffitiluva The 1st is definitely Epic, so many things from that movie stand out & seeing the Delorean hit 88 mph & them fire tire tracks was dope. All the reasons you said for the 2nd is the way I feel too. For pt 2 I like the way the movie goes from 1985 to 2015 than to an alternate 1985 than to 1955, crazy.. I really like pt3 the wild west theme was refreshing way for it to end IMO & Wild Dog Biff Tannon was my favorite Biff out of like 7 of them in the trilogy..
