Deion Sanders

Not only was Deion Sanders a talented football player, but he also dazzled on the baseball field and in the world of fashion. In 1989, Deion was drafted out of Florida State as the 5th overall draft pick. Deion was known as one of the most athletic players in the league, and was used for offense, defense and special teams. He played in the MLB, leading the National League in triples in 1992, and the NFL, becoming a two-time Super Bowl champion and a Pro Football Hall of Famer. Since most youngsters these days focus primarily on one sport, it is pretty rare we’ll come across an athlete like Deion today.

He set the record on April 8th, 1974, in the bottom of the fourth inning. Two fans stormed the field, excitedly greeting the new King as he rounded the bases. When Hank reached home plate, a celebration took place as his teammates hauled him onto their shoulders.
