According to news reports, an Oklahoma fan of Larry Bird may have carried his obsession a bit too far. After being sentenced to 28 years, the Oklahoma man told the judge that he should sentence him to 33 years -- since he was a Larry Bird fan and that was BIrd's number. The judge obliged.
Too bad for him, he wasn't a Robert Parrish fan (00). But then again, things could have been worse. He could have been a Wayne Gretzky fan.
