I had a chance to meet Willie Mays some years back with my dad, they're from the same area, and to listen to some of the stories he told about the stuff he had to deal with was ridiculous. Had a chance to meet Hank Aaron too(I told that story before) but he didn't talk about that in detail, he was the nicest person and even signed a glove, a ball, and a bat that I still have til this day. That's the reason why I'd never put any player over the like of Willie Mays and Hank Aaron. Nobody had to deal with what they dealt with. Also, Atlanta is literally a direct result of Birmingham's racism, heard that from Hank himself along with several other old heads when I was younger, I never forgot that.
