Allen Iverson Is The Best Story Teller Of Our Generation With This Gem About Biggie Getting Him So High He Couldn't Feel His Feet

Yep, just sign me up for listening to Allen Iverson tell stories of his life. One of the coolest, most unique players not just in basketball but in all of sports. Dude just out here casually telling a story of getting high with Biggie and Lil' Cease only to trip about the shirt he was wearing and couldn't feel his feet. Let's be honest. We've all been there before. Sometimes you go back for one more that you don't need and next thing you know you think you're swimming in the Atlantic Ocean only to be on the floor in Kentucky. Hypothetically speaking of course, mom. I can't imagine the feeling of looking down expecting to see Janet Jackson's face only to see an alien. Not the kind of surprise you hope for in that situation. 

Imagine being 21-years old and invited to go to the studio with Biggie. I mean, I can't. When I was 21 I was just hoping to be able to jump the line at Two Keys. Can't say that's too similar to AI's life at 21. And as much as I didn't like Iverson - in the sense that all my friends were Sixers fan and I was the lone Knicks fan in Pennsylvania - there's no denying what he did to the sport. He's one of the most influential players both on and off the court. I always respected that Iverson didn't give a fuck. Whether it was people labeling him a thug or David Stern trying to implement a dress code strictly because of him, he just lived his own life. That's impossible not to love. And now during retirement he's one of the only guys from that era who actually is willing to compliment current players. He doesn't hold some fake grudge or anything like that. He just goes and watches games because he loves hoops. 

Now back to the story, I'll say this. Finding out you were smoking hash and not weed is flat out mean. Someone's gotta step in and help AI out early on here. Be a pal and double check that he wants the hash before he smokes it, not after. AI and Biggie though, man, what a damn crew. I don't know what the level of coolness is to be part of that but nobody I know can sneak into that group.
