I've seen that Horry and Iceman will do an autograph session at a KFC saturday : if you're interested I can look the hour and where they will do it.
Well Streaky, I can tell you that on Saturday the day before the game, Tony's lifelike looking statue will be revealed at Madame Tusseaud in Paris.
Afterwards there will be a private party and the entire Spurs team is scheduled to be there.
And guess what?
I got news yesterday that I AM INVITED TO THE PARTY!!!
This is late, but oh well!
How exciting for you! Have a fantastic time! Remember everything.
Same goes for you Streaky!

Thank you very much. I am really surprised that it seems pretty hard to find out some happenings where it is possible to meet the players. I really thought that at least Duncan and TP do some sessions to promote the NBA. I am still trying to find out if Parker will be at the Museum Grevin, when his wax figure will be revealed and if its possible to join the ceremony (and most importantly at what time it will be revealed).
Will you be there at the KFC? Maybe it is a good opportunity to meet some guys from this board.
So thanks again.

Parker will be at the Grevin Museum saturday but I don't know the hour or if fans can participate (maybe you can mail Grevin museum to have some details).
And I won't be at the KFC.
Tony Parker will be saturday between 17h00 and 18h00 (5:00pm -6:00pm) for an antograph session. It will happen in a big store called "Fnac" (this store sells CD/DVD/TV/videogames..., thsi signing is linked with NBA live 07).
The address :
Fnac Forum - Centre commercial Forum des Halles - Porte Lescot - 75001 Paris (it's a big shopping center)

Parker will be at the Grevin Museum saturday but I don't know the hour or if fans can participate (maybe you can mail Grevin museum to have some details).
And I won't be at the KFC.
only those who will invited can be there
I think Pop said in an interview that it will be a combination of both Fiba and NBA rules.
Wow, that's great. Hope they bring the best from both worlds. Anyone got a link to the interview or some other link concerning this matter?

I think that there is a mistake in this summary : the three point line at the corner is 22 feet far and not 23'9" under nba rules.
Thank you so much for this info!
Even my french friends didn't know about this.
I will be there 100%.
Packed my bag and ready to leave in the morning by train to Paris.
I will share my new adventures with y'all when I get there.
Streaky!
We will be at the Metro exit at Bercy at 2PM on Sunday with a whole group of Spurs fans!
I will post more info when I know you can read this.
Let me know!
You too Admidave!
Just padding myself on the back
Hey alamo! I have internet in Paris. I wanted to be there by now, but I will leave tomorrow mourning. I will also be at the Horry/Gervin KFC session, so we could meet there as well. I am trying to make it on sunday, but I don't really know if it works out. Hope to see you there. By the way, how do we recognize each other? I will wear a "Spurs Basketball" T-Shirt on saturday.
Streaky
I am sending this message from LadyM's account!
You will recognize me today as being the big white dude with the Robinson Retiring a Legend t-shirt holding a George Gervin jersey to get signed by Ice.
I realy do hope we will see each other my one and only German friend.
Salut!
alamo50
You guys are going to have such a fun time! I can't wait to hear all about it.
We sure will angel!
Offcourse I have seen Gervin walking around the Alamodome and SBC Center many times, but he is one of the few players I still wanted to meet and now here in freakin' France it will happen in a few hours from now (lol)!
I try to post pics a.s.a.p. because I know you are genuinly happy for us here and excited to see proof in pics!
So I am here with my French friends LadyM and dave14 and when we walk the streets over here in St. Denis I feel like we are the 3 Musketeers!
Paris here we come!
I would like to see Spurs team in Slovenia next year. That would be nice

alamo50 from LadyM's crib:
OK, I think it's best that The Iceman stays in San Antonio to represent the Spurs 'cause he just sat at that table alongside Horry at KFC in St. Denis looking like he was realy not happy to be there at all.
Same for Robert by the way, but I don't look at him the same way as Gervin offcourse. They just looked very tired an/or uninterested. They didn't communicate with the less than 100 people that bothered to show up AT ALL and didn't respond to the fans trying to communicate with them.
Anyway, I had fun meeting posters from TP9.net from age 14 to 30.
I think this time I wil make French tv 'cause I was the only one wearing the Hardwood Classic Gervin #44 (which I did get signed with "George Gervin" on one 4 and "Iceman #44" on the other 4 (which I actually never have seen on any jerseys he has signed, but the quqlity of the autogrqph shows how tired an/or bored he was)) and that camera guy was in my face a lot more than I thought was neccesary to get a decent shot of the freakin' jersey!
I thanked him very, very much and shook his hand. I did get a little taste of the in San Antonio so famous Gervin smile.
Than I passed Robert a magazine with him on the cover and he signed it.
I also shook his hand and thanked him...........no response.
It was nice to be there in St. Denis representing our dear Spurs, but nothing beats interaction with the players in San Antonio.....or maybe I am just spoiled being a D-Rob fan.
LadyM had no interest in obtaining any signatures so she got me both sigs on my old school Spurs training jacket.
THANK YOU LADYM!
Now I am here all by myself in LadyM's appartement in St. Denis while she and dave14 are at Grèvin Museum for the unveiling of Tony's statue and the party afterwards.....I was told I was invited to, but turns out that was misscommunication somewhere along the way.
Oh well, I'm gonna watch me the Clipper game tonight and be happy for my friends who are with their idol. I do know exactly how they are feeling right now. It's their turn.
Excited for the game tomorrow to represent to the fullest and to be the loudest in my section P.
Oh wait, Pop said it's not the goal to win this game, but to prepare for the NBA season....................YEAH RIGHT!!!
GO SPURS GO!!!
Streaker!
Did I see you (lol)?
What are your thoughts about the event at KFC this afternoon?
P.S.
I have no idea how this french crap works over here so pics will folow laterz.
I hope the rest of your trip is fun. Thanks for the update.
