Michael Jordan's 'Flu Game' shoes auction for $104,765

Posted Dec 12, 2013
The shoes Michael Jordan wore in his famous "Flu Game" sold for $104,765 early Thursday, shattering the record price paid for a pair of game-worn shoes in any sport. The shoes, consigned by former Utah Jazz ball boy Preston Truman, were worn by Jordan during Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals in which Jordan scored 38 points for the Chicago Bulls despite laboring up and down the court from feeling sick that day.
