"That's How We Tip In Las Vegas, Michael" - Michael Jordan Was Once Embarrassed In A Casino By Another Sporting Legend

He's famously competitive and very rarely came out of a situation on the losing side... but one night in Las Vegas, he did.

"I remember a night when Wayne Gretzky insulted Michael Jordan at the table," Strafella said.

"It was a private salon game. Michael had ordered a drink from the cocktail waitress, and he gave her a five-dollar chip.

"Wayne took it off the cocktail waitress's tray, gave it back to Michael, grabbed a hundred-dollar chip from Michael's stack and put it on the cocktail waitress's tray. Then he said, "That's how we tip in Las Vegas, Michael."

Chicago Bulls hero Jordan is currently worth $1.6 billion thanks to a career which brought him six NBA championships, all of which saw him win finals MVP.

The 59-year-old is so flush with cash, he even rejected an eye-watering $100 million for a two-hour appearance.

David Falk, Jordan's representative, has shed light on some of the opportunities Jordan has said no during his time working for him.

"And some woman in the Philippines offered me seven million dollars for one day, wanted him to play in a golf tournament. And he turned it down.

"And all he had to do, other than give his name and likeness, was make one two-hour appearance to announce the deal. And he turned it down."

What a crazy amount.
