Haha "pillow fart".....I think you mean pillow fort
Pillow Fart would have made more sense.
The pillow fort is my #1 for all time Jazz Crazy stories.
Narrowly beating out Torrey Ellis, Officer Polynice, Drums on the Salt Flats, and Stockton's Halloween Brawl.
Honorable mention goes to Ostertag's ice bag bomb at Jerry's head.

Torrey Ellis is the Dwill Park City fight story?
Polynice pretends he's a cop at Old Mill golf course?
Give me the other two stories.
In other odd Jazz stories from history, I'll add: "The Utah Jazz draft a pregnant woman". Happened in 1977.

Yes, Jazz are still paying Luther Wright, he's a preacher now. PJ Carlisimo still ought to be booed at ESA harder than Boozer, D-Will, Jimmer and Fisher combined.
Torrey Ellis cracks me up because Deron was the #3 pick and the freaking point gaurd for the Utah Jazz. Everybody knew who we was. And Robert Whaley was so uncleaver that the only name he could come up with was a shortened version of his own first name and Deron's last name.
Stocton's Halloween Brawl I messed up royaly. Jim Les was complaining that he was better than Stockton and should play ahead of him. He pouted enough the jazz eventually cut him, but he never fought Stockton. However, Bart Kofed clocked Bobby Hansen at a New Years Eve party in 1989.
The Ostertag and Jerry story was told on the radio by Larry H. Miller himself. In the couple of years before he died he did some very candid and sometimes rambling interviews on Jazz Talk. He told a story about walking into the locker room during half-time of a game where Jerry was extremely upset. Jerry was at the chalk board facing the team, Tag was near the back of the group and was icing a knee or back or something with a plastic bag of ice. In his critique of the first half Jerry was pretty abusive of Tags effort or performance. Well, Greg got pissed, Jerry was pissed, Greg hurled the ice bag at Jerry's head. Jerry ducked out of the way, the ice bag hit the chalk board and exploded all over the locker room. Jerry continued on his rant without skipping a beat, but moved onto other players.
LHM, I miss him, then went on to explain that Greg and Jerry were actually pretty good friends despite several explosions from each of them, and talked about Greg going to Bobby Sloans funeral.
I think this is the key to understanding the current Jazz culture, for a couple of years there it seemed like the Jazz were willing to overlook some of the character blemishes in their young players, draft picks, and end of bench guys. IMO the Torrey Ellis and Pillow Forts put an end to it. I believe that LHM told KOC to clean it up, and they have. So when you see things like the Jazz drafting Hayward instead of Paul George or Klay Thompson, blame the pillow forts.

Interesting post, but the last paragraph is garbage. What about Paul George made him different from Hayward and made Hayward a safer pick character wise?
Plus, Thompson did have the drug arrest, but he wasn't even on the board when the Jazz picked 12.
