Do you think Reggie Jackson remembers when he tried to buy a Rolls in Scottsdale Az and was refused?

The dealer saw Mr. Jackson behind the wheel of his Rolls and made a fuss firing the salesman on the spot. The dealer didn't know who Reggie was. This was in the middle 70's when he played for Oakland. I was the manager and Mr. Jackson drove up in a Rolls the following week he bought in California. He said, "Get the owner out here". He then gave the owner a well known sign and speed off. It was great.

A great story, I don't see any reason why Reggie would forget that story, has it been documented at all, there are lots of books documenting his life perhaps that anecdote is published?
