Without The Duck, asking a coach for a picture, you just feel like a goofy fan. But with The Duck it's OK. It's like an alter ego.

I called him Kenny Mayne. He was kind of ticked about that, so no way was he putting The Duck on his head. But he gave us a picture.

She wouldn't have anything to do with us. We weren't going to push it, either. I figured there were Secret Service agents hanging around who'd have been all too happy to pull a Jack Bauer on me.

It's a fun, creative outlet for both of us.

I always feel like a goofy little kid.

We have to duck airplanes up here, ... But I'm still a Bulls fan. I still enjoy coming out, even if they don't win.
