MICHAEL JORDAN SIGHTING ?
Let me see.. if my memory serves me.. is this Michael Jordan ? No- he was #23. Is it LeBron James ? No- again- wrong number. Hmm.. wait.. now I remember.. how could I possibly forget ? this is the world-(in)-famous Bob Wingate in action, skying for another rebound. This must've been a live shot from ESPN. =)
ACTUALLY FOLKS- this was a Special Event with the ROWAN COUNTY SENIOR GAMES. This took place at the Catawba College gym, with our local Senior Games basketball team {the Rowan Ringers} taking on a group of professional NFL football players. YES-- that's right. We couldn't scheduleThe Miami Heat or even The Charlotte Bobcats to play us { I doubt we would've wanted to}.. so we got the next best thing. Who won? Well.. let me just say.. it was close.. We have a group of about 15-20 guys who play pick-up games every week at the local YMCA & sometimes at the college gym. Then every summer, we have a local tournament & then we take teams to Greenville, NC every October to compete in the NC SENIOR GAMES State Tournament at ECU. It's a lot of fun.. it's been a great outlet for me.. and I know all of the guys on our team enjoy it !
