Local controversy about John Stockton finally reached a boiling point. The entire season, while students have been required to wear masks, and just recently GU stopped selling food and drink, John Stockton has refused to wear a mask at games. And every game - even nationally televised - the TV station has panned on him to show that he is in attendance. Locals have been writing in anger about it in the the opinion column. It's become a black eye for GU. There is no bigger public celebrity in Spokane besides John Stockton. Even though he is retired, he is very involved in the community. His kids did AAU, he brought them out when the YMCA hosted punt pass and kick, he shows up at Hoopfest. Really, it's just quite amazing he would decide to tarnish his public reputation like he has. Obviously it's about money. And I suppose there were finally enough donors that complained to the point the school had to take action.
