Madness for Michael Jordan had one of its greatest examples in the purchase of the top floor where the NBA legend was in the uniform of the Chicago Bulls. Not knowing that he would play in the league again, the buyers did not think twice and offered a million dollars for the curious souvenir.
On June 14, 1998, Game 6 of the NBA Finals between Bulls and Utah Jazz, which had as main figures Karl Malone and John Stockton. In an epic finale, Jordan hit the winning shot that meant the sixth and last championship of the living legend of the Chicago team.
The career of the one considered by many as the GOAT of the NBA had come to an end and some memory of that last game was one of the most desired objects. Not knowing that Jordan would return in the 2001-02 season with the Washington Wizards, the company Upper Deck decided to do an unprecedented offer for the floor of the last court he stepped on ‘Air’ with the Bulls.

Upper Deck, a company dedicated to the sale of collectable sports cards, paid a million dollars for the entire field of the Delta Center stadium which hosted Jordan’s last game with the Bulls. All that flat happened to have owner since 1998 and is the most expensive object that someone paid in relation to MJ.
What did they do with the last court Michael Jordan played on?
Although it is typical in sports that a bit of grass from a mythical stadium is sold to the fans, in this case it is unknown what the Upper Deck did with the top floor on which it played Michael Jordan with the Chicago Bulls. Have you sold it by pieces? A great deal!
