Earlier this year, Michael Jordan’s infamous Air Jordan 12 “Flu Game” pair – the original pair actually worn in game and then given to a Utah Jazz ball boy after the game – (a story that involved pretzels and apple sauce in what could be the most lopsided trade in the history of fiending after sneakers) sold for around $104,000. Today marks the 17th anniversary of the game in which MJ may or may not have suffered from food poisoning instead of the flu. Mike would go on to score 38 points while playing through heavy dehydration to lead the Bulls to a 90-88 victory to take control of the series. Hit the click for full highlights of the legendary Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals and stick with Jordans Daily for all your MJ History.
