You have a lot of farm trucks and tractors, pulling trailers of tobacco."Īl met Mike in the third grade and they were teammates in three sports growing up. "When you get around Wallace, where Mike's dad was from, that's an ag-type county. "A lot of agricultural type equipment is running up and down that road," Edgerton says. The highway cuts through fields and little towns. Al Edgerton, a longtime engineer in the North Carolina Department of Transportation and a grade school classmate of Jordan's, was part of a crew that resurfaced 117 less than a decade ago.

There have been Jordans living along that corridor since the Civil War. 117 IS the mother road of Michael Jordan's past. It was there Mike learned the lessons that would help him become Michael Jordan. "One that was a public persona and one that was private." For nearly 400 years, six generations of Jordans have lived on a tiny wedge of land in rural Wilmington, North Carolina. "Very early I had a personality split," Jordan told me once. Someone suggested ringing the doorbell, but they worried about disturbing the current occupants, so his friends just stood there a moment with him, watching Michael Jordan look at the house where he used to live. "How do most people feel when they go back to see their childhood home?" the person explained. One of the friends with him said later they didn't feel comfortable describing the scene. It's the address where Dean Smith sent recruiting letters. The house, a middle-class split-level, is at 4647 Gordon Road, near U.S. Jordan doesn't go home very often, but he had some friends with him on that trip and wanted to show them where he'd grown up while they were in town.
