A photo of Michael Jordan in Granville Towers circa 1983, found on Reddit.

Who does this guy think he is? Taking the walk down from the ninth floor of Hinton James and up to the tenth floor of Morrison, I randomly canvassed a few responses to this photo of a guy who clearly does not know his superstitions:

“He looks like a goofy guy.” — Amy O’Brien

“He looks familiar…” — Calvary Diggs

“I hope he doesn’t post this online.” — Ellie Davis

“Why does he have an umbrella indoors?” — Carla Salas

“Oh! He’s singing in the rain!” — Camilla Brewer

“He looks like he’s having fun.” — Scott Fentress

“Is that from Reddit?” — Griffin Connors

Yep. This photo made the front page of Reddit Thursday.

“Oh yeah. That’s Michael Jordan in Granville, 1983.” — Taylor Pollard

Right on, Taylor Pollard, whose grandmother was actually photographed in the same room with Air Jordan himself. Pollard’s mother went to school with Jordan and lived in Granville as well.
