You have to produce a paper in partnership with Paul Erdos to get an Erdos number of 1. If you produce a paper in partnership with someone who already has an Erdos Number, you get one more than your co-author(s). It is rumoured that baseball legend Hank Aaron has an Erdos number of 1 since he and Erdos both signed the baseball with which Aaron broke Babe Ruth's career home run record of 714 !
