Talking Lakers with Gary "@TheRealSignGuy1"
What's up Lakers fans! (Just kidding Pete.) Now that the Lakers have won their 17th NBA championship (and 12th in the lake-filled city of Los Angeles), what better way to celebrate than to bring in a Lakers super-fan who is on the Mount Rushmore of Lakers fans, along with Jack Nicholson and Dyan Cannon, Gary the Sign Guy, AKA @TheRealSignGuy1 who also happens to be the star of the most iconic Lakers fan GIF ever. You'll hear how Gary became a Lakers fan, his superhero origin story (how Kobe's 81-point game inspired him to become the Lakers Sign Guy), and his favorite Lakers and Lakers teams from two decades as a season ticket holder. But we also learn more about the man behind the myth, including his childhood, how he amassed his fortune, and what Kobe meant to him. Unless you're a Celtics or Clippers fan, you'll love this episode! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/chris-yeh-podcast/support
