Josh Arieh: Hero-Worshipping 101

TAGS: Poker: Josh Arieh

The hero is umasked! Josh Arieh, our giant-nippled poker playing hero(and TWO-time WSOP bracelet winner) has posted about his golfing expedition yesterday and, as we adequately predicted, the “hero” was none other than NBA basketball legend(and six-time NBA champion) Michael Jordan. Observe as the Cinnabon gets butterflies:

I got to the golf course around 9 and had breakfast with a couple buddies and headed out to the range to hit balls. After about 45 I was sick of hitting golf balls and decided to head into the clubhouse to cool off and get out of the 100 degree Vegas heat. I went to the bar to fill up on some water before I headed out. As I made my way back thru the locker room I noticed a pair of white tennis shoes on the ground neatly placed in front of a locker and I thought to myself “cool Phil Ivey is here, those are his shoes”. I casually looked up to see if that was Phil’s locker and chills went down my spine. I read the words “Michael Jordan.” Man, I wanted to steal those shoes SOOOO bad, who cares that they were probably 3 sizes too big, I’d wear them anyway……

The two superior athletes did get a chance to meet and shake hands, but Arieh is still hoping for the opportunity to play a round with MJ on Saturday. But should that event actually take place, we are very certain that Arieh’s slice will be monumental due in part to the incredibly obscene boner he’ll be saddled with in Jordan’s presence. We hope, for his sake, this is not a money game.
