So I met an NBA legend today..!

[veddertruth]

About a year ago I purchased the jersey Robert Horry wore during the Shooting Stars competition from MeiGray.. Today Robert Horry paid Denmark a visit as part of an NBA arranged street ball tournament.. I figured I would give it a shot to get the jersey signed.. It paid off!


As you can see on my face I was pretty stoked




Boom! Complete with inscription an all!

So thrilled!

Cheers!

I would have gone for 'Big Shot Bob' for reference to the Shooting contest - but either way great piece of NBA memorabilia right there! Be proud!

Thanks guys!
To be honest he seemed a bit jetlagged and didn't interact too much with the fans other than what he had to..

I'd be surprised if he signed much more than a 100 autos total for the weekend.. And I only saw 4 inscriptions.. 2 were to city officials (the mayor and another big shot), one was to a really cool little kid who had impressed him, and one was for me.. I didn't even ask for it to be inscribed! I think he just thought it was an item "worthy" of an inscription.. As I gave the jersey for him to sign, he took a look at it and I told him that he wore it and he told me "I know"..!

I also shook his hand and got to ask him a question during a very short q&a session so I feel pretty lucky!

What a story mate, what were the odds that the 2 would be together again, now that's a special story. Congrats on getting it signed and getting an inscription is just cream on top. I had a similar experience with Mike Tyson except I didn't have anything he wore to sign, just the whole experience of meeting him, getting stuff signed and I was lucky enough to be chosen to ask Tyson the last question during Q&A which happened to be NBA related haha

Very nice mate, thanks for sharing!

 

[veddertruth]

Nice! Meeting Iron Mike would be cool!
