All Star Weekend is in the book! What a weekend!

Posted by Double S




What up guys? For those of you whom I'm friends with on facebook, maybe you've seen my posts over the weekend about all the events that I went to. The rest of you can add me http://www.facebook.com/?ref=logo#!/profile.php?id=546431058 to check them out. I'm very lucky that my dad was awarded tickets on Saturday to the All Star Game by the Share Our Strength charity that he's heavily involved in fundraising for them. The charity could've kept them for themselves, but they gave them to my dad and they were sick seats! They were better seats than for any Magic game I've gone to. It was like a dream come true to see the world's best on the same court. It was insane! Our seats were in the section next to the stage where the player intruductions and the halftime show was. The ONLY thing that sucked was there was a "wall" of lighting equipment that blocked most of our view during introductions and the halftime show. It was amazing to look around the arena and see Bill Russell, Magic Johnson, Clyde Drexler, Chris Mullen, David Robinson, Spike Lee, politician/rev Jesse Jackson, Cee Lo Green, Lil Wayne, Drake, Mary J Blige, CC Sabathia, etc.



Went to the Jam Session on Thurs eve, the Rising Stars Game (which was CHEAP compared to the All Star Sat Night & Game--only $40!) Rubio is the shit. He's like And 1 mix tapes in the NBA. If I had NBA League Pass, I'd watch the Timberwolves, Clippers and Heat games. Wish I had checked out tickets earlier because I was almost to the top of the Arena although at mid court. Went to the All Star Practice on Sat morning. That was great being 50 feet or so from the court prior to knowing I was going to the Game...then doing it again the next day. I took about 1,000 pics during the weekend. Maybe at some point to unload them from my camera to the 'net.

I was so busy during the weekend that I actually didn't watch the All Star Sat Night events.

BTW, I'm in the above photo. I'm standing up in the section to the right of CP3/ Wearing a blue shirt and I'm turned towards the right about an inch (in the pic) from CP3's head.
