Bobbito in Africa

ROB ONE — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 00:11:15 +0000

Check out this post from Bobbito Garcia during his recent trip out to Senegal, West Africa. He was invited by the SEEDS Foundation, to coach clinics as part of their ‘Grow The Game’ program. It’s always great to read about people’s experiences when they travel to remote areas. But it’s even more greater to read articles that end up inspiring us. Check out the post on http://www.bouncemag.com/2010/01/19/from-deep-roots-seeds-and-trees-in-senegal-west-africa/. Notice the photo of Bobbito representin’ BBJ to the fullest all the way down in Africa. Bobbito ended up giving his BBJ lid to one of the coaches out there who works with all these kids on a daily (very well deserved). Yo Bob - thanks for spreading the love! Photos: Brian Benjamin.

I just got back from the Frank and Son Collectible Show this afternoon and it wasn’t a typical Saturday for all the regulars that usually show up. The place was jam packed and you would think that you were celebrating at a Laker parade with the sea of purple and gold in attendance. The reason for the madness…Lamar Odom, Trevor Ariza, and Shannon Brown were there signing autographs. Even a ghetto bird circled around the area. Peep some of the photos.
