– Having a rule made for him in ’94-’95 that in every packet of Fleer basketball cards, there had to be at least 1 Olden Polynice card
– Dropping some science knowledge in the amazing ‘Black Hole’ speech in ‘Eddie’
Dead-Set #Ledge Status:
Assured! C’mon mate, without the Sonics trading Scottie Pippen for Olden Polynice, who knows what happens to MJ and the Bulls in the ‘90s. Also, Olden was more massive than the chorus to ‘Horses’… AND he delivered one of the best scenes in ‘Eddie’! What a ledge!
#ONYA Polly!!
