No. 02 — As remembered by his son
Meet Mark
Mark Maddocks is Jordan Maddocks's father — a Utah Jazz fan and a dancer.
Jordan remembers his dad being brought onto the court many times, rallying the crowd, and appearing in TV spots.
This archive gathers those memories and searches for the footage, photos and print that may still exist, so the moments can be seen again.
The goal is to recover the footage and surprise Mark with it. (Shh — don't tell Dad.)

Dashed strings are suggestions or referrals — a name on the board doesn't mean that person was contacted.
No. 04 — Calling all witnesses
Have a memory, photo or tape?
If you remember Mark at a game, or know where an old broadcast might be hiding, tell Jordan in the conversation you already have with him. The date, the opponent and where it came from are the three clues that help most.
