I was 23 years old working at Sears stocking shelves. One day I was putting away a pallet of blenders in housewares and I glanced over to the neighboring department which was the boys section. A tall, skinny black man in a hat caught my attention. He was browsing around by himself and looked like he needed help so I walked over to help him.
I walked up and once I got near him he looked familiar. It was Michael Jackson! I couldn’t believe it. I looked closely and it was him alright. I wanted to ask him a million questions about music but my duties came first. I was curious so I said, "Michael, what are you doing in this department?
He answered, "Oh, I saw a sign that said “Boys jeans-- half off”.
