If ya'll didn't get a chance to stop by and get some $10 tix, they're still available. For 10 bucks they're a steal, and you can always move down to the lower level. Also, got a chance to meet Mo T and Mike Wells today. Mo was driving a black Mercedes Benz 600 sedan (don't they all?) with 18" rims. He was all smiles today, and even took time for pictures. Good thing I came home from Austin this weekend... My 3 game package: -2 for Dec 27 vs Seattle -2 for Jan 6 vs Utah -2 for Jan 13 vs Sacto ------------------ "Oh No..." -Bill Walton in 97 just before Stockton's buzzer beater
Baqui99, I was at the Hong Kong too. It was pretty cool since there were no lines. Can anyone tell me what was the church place like? I think the Rocks were trying to go out and get the minority vote today, aside from selling the cheap seats. I say that because the Hong Kong location is mostly Vietnamese and Chinese. The Runnels location, where I grew up, is mostly Hispanic and some black. I don't know about the other place. I got 2 tix to the Spurs DEC. 19 for me and my dad. And 10 to the Sac. game in January, so I might see you there. I wanted the Lakers and Raptors and Blazers, but they all sold out pretty early. Mo is big guy; he's nice. Shandon is nice too. Didn't really say much to them except for "thanks for the autograph" and "good luck this year." The Power Dancers were cool. Got to chat a little. They're pretty hot too, but they're all upper twenties, and I'm 19, so no chance, no attempt. There were very few people there other than shoppers who stopped by.
kim.. i went to the church one.. pretty disapointing.. francis was cool and calvin was there and a few other guys but dream was a disapointment like i expected. he showed up an hour late then signed autographs for 15 minutes and jetted out of the place. but i guess when your hakeem your too good to stay more than 15 minutes. i wish he would take lessons from calvin and some of the other players about taking time out for your fans.. people were pretty mad. other people there said he's done this about he last 3 or 4 times they attempted to get his autograph. francis, moochie.. larry smith. and t hose guys were awesome though.. the power dancers and turbo were also there ------------------ Shane "Save Our Rockets" "Life without basketball in Houston........without an arena that is what it will be"
Olajuwon was not any better last night in San Antonio, even to Rockets fans. He said "noh, noh...(and some other stuff but I couldn't understand his broken english)!" Francis is really cool. I'm glad we got him. He is the most fan friendly Rockets player. I didn't get to meet Calvin last night but if you were watching the postgame show I believe before the Francis interview, then you saw me waving in the background. That was until a TV technician lady got pissed and told me to move. Calvin shook hands with David Robinson before the game. I don't know if that is good or bad luck ------------------
wow how you get to get francis after the san antonio game? i was behind calvin and bill during the francis interview too. ------------------
I live in Utah so I didn't get to go. Did anyone go see Cat? I've met all the Rockets (except for the rookies and Mo)and the nicest are Cuttino, Steve, and Bulard. Calvin is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet,it's cool when you see him because he is so short it makes you feel tall (the same with mooch). Layoff of Dream, because after of 16 years of people asking you for your autograph you might get a little mad. ------------------ Cuttino Mobley Online
Cat was very cool. He brought his father out as well. Walt, Cato and Bullard were all super nice. Rudy T. and Jim Boylen were really, REALLY cool guys too. I'm sorry to hear about Dream. That is really a bummer. ------------------ Save Our Rockets and Comets SaveOurRockets.com
I understand that Dream has been signing autographs for a long time, but he is still a recognizable player on the Rockets. If he doesn't want to sign autographs at the game then that is his business, but today was a community relations day and he should have done better. ------------------
