Michael Jordan UNC game-worn Converse basketball shoes sell for $120,000


A 40-year-old pair of Converse high-tops sold over the weekend for $120,000. Of course, the sneakers once belonged to — who wore them on the court and on campus during his freshman year at UNC, when the Tar Heels won a national championship — so that jacked up the price a bit. And they were autographed by Jordan, too. (Yahoo! Sports)
