So, Ovi used to decorate his own sticks with stylized 8′s in a… unique way.

“It’s Drinking Man, Fat Man, Man Who Have Legs, and this is Girl,” he said, pointing to the last stick on the right. He said that he does the artwork himself, and that the order is, in fact, significant: the Drinking Man is his first stick, the Fat Man is his second stick, and so on.

For all I know he was making this up, but he explained that each drawing had numerical significance. Drinking Man’s holding a stick in his left hand that looks like the number one. Fat Man has two eyes. Girl (i.e. No. 4) has two hands and two eyes. And Man Who Have Legs…well, how exactly do you get the number three out of Man Who Have Legs?

“I don’t know,” Ovie said. “Maybe third leg.”

Okay Bailey stab me in the heart with your lede a little deeper why don't you.

imagine growing up loving a team on the other side of the continent, idolizing one of the best players in the world, wearing his red jersey in a sea of blue. and then you get traded to his team. and then you get put on his line. and then. when he scores his 1,000 career goal (only the 2nd player in history to do it!). you're the first one to hug him.
