Michael Jordan Once Ordered Bodyguard To Body Slam Hollywood Actor For High-5 Attempt

We all know that all-time NBA great Michael Jordan has a thing for gambling. Whether it is betting on games, shots, golf, or simply gambling in a casino, Jordan loves to do it all.

So this story, or at least the setting of the story, the famous Bellagio casino in Las Vegas, doesn’t comes as too much of a surprise.

While being guest on ‘The Tonight Show’ with Jimmy Fallon, comedian and actor Hasan Minhaj revealed the story of how his attempt to high-five Michael Jordan ended up with him getting body slammed by one of his bodyguards.

“I just see him and I sprint towards Mike. And I just reach out. I’m reaching out for a high five. Like, I want his chocolaty hand to touch my chocolaty hand. Just like validate me. And he sees me. Then he nods to his security guard, and his security guard grabs me by the neck, just lifts me up and boom! Just body slams me into the ground and the whole casino stops.”
