Mourning Helps Heat Fan Celebrate 102nd Birthday
Miami Heat center Alonzo Mourning sure seems like a swell dude. He’s been in the NBA since 1992, made a comeback after a kidney transplant in 2003, and according to WIKIPEDIA, he’s “traveled to various supermarket venues ready to autograph basketballs of many sick children.” (Mourning has also blown $25 grand supporting the Democratic Party in 2004. That hardly makes him swell, but it’s fun to think that he has that kind of dough to throw away.)
His latest act of kindness includes visiting Sarah Wiseman, thought to be the galaxy’s oldest Heat fan. Wiseman, you see, just celebrated her 102nd birthday at the Miami Jewish Home and Hospital at Douglas Gardens, and Mourning made an appearance.
