A quick little MK story about my mom that I wanted to share, when we were growing up my mom worked 2 jobs just to support me and my brother and sister and she made sure that we had nice things but we could never afford to get them right away for example if a new game or pair of Jordans dropped we would have to wait for Xmas or a birthday to roll around before we could get them and i’ll never forget sitting in my 7th grade class in Nov of 1994 and the buzz was all about Mortal Kombat 2 had just dropped for home consoles so as exciting as it was I knew I would at least have to wait until Xmas to have a chance to play it on my SNES and that felt like eternity to me so anyway i’m sitting in class and all the sudden I get a call over the intercom to report to the office “great what have I done this time” I thought as I slowly walked to the office but when I got there I saw my mom sitting there to pick me up in the middle of the day! I immediately was worried why my mom would be randomly getting me out of school and on the way to the car I asked her “what’s going on is everyone ok” and she replied yeah everything is fine I just thought since i’m so proud of you and love you so much i’m taking you right now to KB Toys to be one of the 1st ppl to buy Mortal Kombat 2 and you get to stay home and play it for the rest of the day while everyone else is in school! I was literally the happiest kid on earth in that moment and to this day I still have it and cherish that moment but that was my mom that’s how she rolled!
