On Thursday, former NBA star, Hall-of-Famer, broadcaster, and possible dadaist Bill Walton went on Reddit to do an “Ask Me Anything.” What we learned is that he has strong feelings about a lot of things like his bike, his dog, his wife, and the sun. In that order.
It was the second most inspirational AMA ever behind Jeff Bridges.
Here are the best moments from this crazy Q & A session.
He finally explained the ‘milking’ thing
You– yes, you– can be milked if you truly want to be
He loves In N Out
His son, Luke, is doing just fine
He’s all about peace and love, man
He saw a volcano erupt while on tour with Grateful Dead
He had an unexpected take on his role in Little Nicky
He owns a teepee
He had a very diplomatic answer to the question of whether college players should be paid or not
The greatest moment of his career was when he beat Kevin McHale 1-on-1
The session was cut short because a volcano was about to erupt and Walton needed to check on his dog and his teepee, but he assured everyone that he’d see them “on the other side.” Read the whole AMA over on Reddit. It is well worth your time.
