Bo Jackson gives Adam LaRoche’s son history lesson about Bo Jackson (Video)
It’s well known that Bo knows … well, lots of things. So it’s his job to make sure those around him know just as much as he does. And if there’s one thing Bo knows best, it’s about being Bo.
Jackson is spending spring training as a special instructor with the White Sox. While at camp he came across a youngin in need of a history lesson: Adam LaRoche’s 13-year-old son Drake.
I’m the only player to make it to the Pro Bowl in football and the All-Star game in baseball,” was just one of the bits of information Jackson regaled the young LaRoche with about his celebrated two-sport career in the video above.

“That’s pretty awesome,” Drake replied, seeming to understand he was in the company of an American sports legend. To be fair, Jackson retired from MLB in 1994, almost a decade before his conversation partner was born.
At least now Drake can go to all his friends and let them know what he learned at the school of Bo.
