Reggie Miller visits statue at Children's Museum exhibit

One of the greatest names in Indiana sports history was back in the Hoosier State to see...himself.

INDIANAPOLIS (WTHR) — One of the greatest names in Indiana sports history was back in the Hoosier State to see...himself.

Pacers legend Reggie Miller took his family to the Children's Museum of Indianapolis, where he's featured in the museum's Sports Legends Experience exhibit.

Miller, his wife and their two children visited his statue at the Old National Bank Avenue of Champions.

I can’t put into words how honored and humbled I am to be apart of the Sports Legend Experience located at the @childrensmuseum. Thank you Ande, Lori and all the men and women of the Children’s Museum, who made me feel like a kid again and took the time out of your busy schedule to host my family and friends... To be next to Mr BOOMBABY himself Slick Leonard is a dream come true, I’m a stones throw away from Larry Legend, The Big O and my adopted little sis @catchin24.. As Wayne n Garth would say, “I’m not WORTHY 😳”!!! People get to the Children’s Museum, not only for the Legends Experience, but Dinosphere, DC Comics, Playscape, Beyond Spaceship Earth just to name a few exhibits to keep the young and old smiling from ear to ear. Sorry for the long post, but this is a MUST.. #GoingBackToIndiana #NeverGrowOld

On Instagram, Miller wrote he was "honored and humbled" to be a part of the exhibit, and to be next to Slick Leonard, and a stone's throw away from Larry Bird, Oscar Robertson and Tamika Catchings.

Miller also recreated his iconic comeback against the New York Knicks when he scored eight points in nine seconds. It was only a simulation, and he didn't actually have to score any baskets, but the retired hooper still has speed in him.


Overall, Miller had a great visit and applauded The Children's Museum for how well done his statue was. "Ears and crooked right elbow are on point," he said on Instagram.
