Nike was scared to death of shows like 60 Minutes. They always assumed that you were going to do a hit place. In the end they were just a bunch of little people with big egos who thought they were the best thing since sliced brisket. Last time I was offered a Nike assignment I turned it down. Wasn’t worth the angst. Worst PR people in the sports business, worse than the Yankees and that’s saying something.
That said I spent two weeks on stories about Athletics West in 1979. Ended up with a former shotputter as my soundman for 25 years. Great two weeks. AW way ahead of its time.
Also had a friend with Cali plates who had his tires slashed in Seaside. Sorry Hulk, the state is not fond of visitors.
