This was the big headline in the Sunday sports section ("Sunday Showcase").
From columnist David Whitley:
There's more to 7-foot-6 UCF signee Tacko Fall than meets the camera's eye
f his friends back in Senegal could see him now, they would be a little confused. To them, Tacko Fall was just the lankiest kid in the neighborhood.
To the lady in Orlando, he was something that had to be photographed to be believed.
Fall was at an indoor miniature golf course on a typical family outing. Except things are never typical when he goes out.
There were the usual gawks and gasps. He couldn't take a swing without having a cellphone click a photo.
Tiger Woods might have thrown a club. Fall just carried on, finished his round and dutifully posed with a series of strangers.
After everybody was happy, Fall headed out. Then the lady and her friends pushed forward and insisted on a few more shots. Fall granted their wish, but couldn't quite muster his usual grin.
As he left, the excited lady turned to a stranger. She had just one question.
"Who was that?"
