Great moment from celebration of life for Willie Mays, where former President Bill Clinton attended and told stories as a fan boy, was Barack Obama. appearing in a video, and talking about inviting Willie to ride with him on Air Force One on the way to the All-Star Game in St. Louis. “Everybody was just passing me by. ‘Can I get you something Mr. Mays?’
