Michael Jordan ruffles feathers at country club for not wearing Bermuda shorts

Posted Nov 28, 2012
Michael Jordan ruffled feathers at an exclusive Miami Beach country club when he wouldn’t play by their rules. The NBA legend hit the links as a guest at swanky La Gorce Country Club — but his gear didn’t fit the club’s old-school rules. “Michael was wearing cargo pants on the course,” said a spy. But when 6-foot, 6-inch Jordan was offered a chance to change outfits, he demurred. (New York Post)
