While being a Michael Jordan fan for majority of his life, little did he know he was about to receive the biggest surprise directly from his icon, MJ.

Harrison has been infatuated with Michael Jordan since he was 4-years-old. He has been wearing the Jordan uniform since 2010. It has earned him nicknames like Jordan, but the response has not always been positive.

Many people did not know at the time he blew up on social media that Harrison is autistic. He is unable to work and he dedicates much of his time to basketball, watching videos of Jordan’s old teams and playing pickup games.

Harrison said people are not always nice and it frustrates him. But, he has never let it defeat him. He challenges the perception of who he is and what he is capable of both in life and in basketball.

Harrison said he always has fun playing basketball and takes it very seriously. It is just another way he takes after his idol.

CBS affiliate KREM2 was able to contact Jordan’s business manager, who was touched by Harrison’s tribute, that Michael Jordan decided to pass along a “Thank You” to one of his biggest fans.

His mother Barbara Williams had kept it all a surprise and Jeffrey said he had no idea it was coming.

“I knew it was him. It kind of brought me to tears after I got off the phone so I figured this is really going to be nice. The fact that Michael Jordan took the time to call and put all this together. I love it, even the cologne even the sweats, I love it,” said Harrison.

What an amazing story. Let us know what you guys think in the comments section.
