A childhood belief about sport

When i was little i was eating cheerios and i said to my dad "there is a picture of your friend on the cheerios box!!" he looked at the box and saw that it was a picture of basketball player Larry Bird.. he finally figured out from me who i was thinking of and told that friend of his that i thought he looked like Larry Bird. Today, about 10 years later, i picked up the phone and he said "hi this is Larry Bird". they will never let me forget this....
