Michael Jordan had arrangement to grocery shop after hours to dodge fan circus

ESPN's "The Last Dance" has highlighted the extreme levels of fame Michael Jordan reached during his playing career. Episodes 5 and 6 detail the excess media attention Jordan received during the Bulls' first three-peat, prior to him leaving basketball to play baseball.

Jordan's celebrity was off the charts, and with that came a throng of fans. Such fame comes unique challenges.

In an interview with The Undefeated, former Bull Brad Sellers revealed the unique arrangement Jordan had with stores to avoid being swarmed by fans while grocery shopping.

You saw MJ doing laundry in the first few episodes and that was him back then, the country side of him, just living like a regular dude.
