In September of 2009, Michael Jordan’s and his countless career accomplishments were finally enshrined into the Hall of Fame. What followed was a long speech from the man himself, who revealed a rare bit of emotion as tears began to stream down his face.

So what does the photography who actually took the photo think of this whole thing?

Do you think the Jordan Crying Meme will ever die? Check out this great piece of journalism by 2 Point Lead below.
