>"Oh man. Man, listen, so ... truth be told, as you can tell, I started losing my hair a little bit ... they came out with this -- it's like a hair dye, whatever, for men called the 'bigen.' Well, I had one guy that was like, 'Yo, have you ever thought about growing your hair out?' And I was like, yeah, I was thinking about it, until I saw some of these little bald spots on my head. So, I was like, you know, I just cut my hair off. And so he was telling me that he could -- you know, 'grow your hair out, I could cover it up a little bit, and make it look like you got a regular haircut.' So I tried it, and he just made myself look like shoe polish up there ... this is like five years later, and I'm still hearing about it."Keep in mind this interview dates back to 2015, so this is how the "five years later" part should be interpreted. I bet he's still hearing about the accident nowadays.
>>149580504Yep. I was about to post Payton's signature "Can't See Shit Capt'n" haircut as well. This pic proves that it actively blocked some of his view when shooting the ball. Which sometimes occurs in the game of basketball or so I've been told.
