Shawn Kemp shops at Wal-Mart

I guess when you've fathered "at least seven children," you have to cut costs wherever possible...even if you did earn $64 million in salary over a 13-season NBA career. But Wal-Mart, Shawn? Really?? Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

Kemp Wal-mart
Wal-Mart's new slogan: Always low prices. And Shawn Kemp, apparently.

Thanks to Dan. B for the heads up. As Dan pointed out, the best part is that most of the commenters didn't know who Kemp was.

Approximately how many years from now should we be expecting Travis Henry?

WV - ePump - Surely with his long list of children Kemp must have been using an ePump

Oh man Kemp was my favorite player when I was growing up. Good to see that he shops at the same places I do.

if it makes anyone feel better I remember seeing Robert Parish in a Woolworth in Chicago back in the 80's.....

Now that I think about it, nope don't feel better....

what's interesting is that the smile seems legit. it's like he's lost his mind and doesn't understand how badly he's fallen. or maybe he's just high.

I just spent five minutes on that website.

I am so glad I'm not American.

No offence, you guys.

I ran into Shawn Bradley in a Wal-Mart back when he played in Dallas. Completely unexpected, as it was in a pretty run-down section of town. He was with two of his daughters looking at some pet stuff. Evidently if you're named Shawn, played in the NBA, and have oodles of kids, you frequent Wal-Marts.
