The way I'll explain it like this. In 1969


I've nied to play Tecmo Bowl. That's the real truth. I've seen others play the game a lot. But I had an idea of what I could do. I knew that Madden 22 coins was possible that the Tecmo Bowl man could do. It's fun when people compliment me from that game.

Part of your video game return to Madden is celebrating Nike's legendary Bo Knows campaign. Rewind to the beginning. What was the way Bo Knows presented the concept that Bo Knows was the name of Bo Knows to you?

We happened upon Bo Knows accidentally. Directors, writers, and sketchers -- we were sat in a circle, looking over storyboards for our next shoot. We wanted to cut the length as it was a little too long. Everyone was offering their opinions about this or that. I just said, 'Why should we not do this? ... Then why should we shift this over here, and put this here, combine it and take out 5 or 6 second?' And they glanced at me then said "Wow. It's probably a good idea. Someone across the table looked at me in a way and said 'Bo Knows!' And it stuck. Nobody sat down and ran through their thoughts or stayed up late trying to think of the catchy phrase. It just happened at the table at war, discussing shootings.

Before you received the signature shoe, you had the Nike Air Bo Turf, in the year 1990, you launched your first Nike Air Trainer 3, which was later referred to as your shoe. What are the memories you have about your experience with the Air Trainer 3?

The way I'll explain it like this. In 1969 as I was in the very first grade in rural Alabama In the winter, it was temperatures in the 30's. And I was required to go to school barefoot. Shoes were not allowed. I'm not saying this for an apology or as a sob story. However, I do remember my brother being a block away from our house. I'm standing at the front door. My sister was standing just a one block from his brother, and another sister was waiting at the stop for buses. My sister, who was at the bus stop noticed the bus at the top of the hill only a couple of kilometers away, she'd yell to my other sister. She would then yell at my brother. My brother would yell at me. After that, I'd run out the door , barefoot. At the point that my brother was able to reach my sister's house I'd be able to catch him earlier. The moment we got to the bus stop I'm about 15 yards in front of my sister and brother. From going to school barefoot in the winter of '69 to becoming a teenager and wearing a sneaker inspired by my own ... It was blessed.

After 30 or so decades, people still brag about the shoe and even collect the shoe. In the last few weeks, a close friend my own, Anthony Anderson, the comedian, texted me: Hey, Bo! I'm doing a comedy show about each of my sneaker. I'm not able to find those Air Shoes. I'm looking for a pair of your shoes It just happened that buy Mut 22 coins I had the pair in my office. I thought to myself, 'Hey! well, I got the shoes here. You can send them to you.' It's moments like that where I sit back and go, 'Wow.'
