Explains why Olberding moved back to SA.

Who knew he was Beno's role model (at least for one thing)?

The one-question litmus test:

Did you ever buy an SRO ticket for a game at the HemisFair?

$3 tickets next to the smoking section good enough for ya? Of course after the 1st quarter ended my sight lines improved significantly. Ahhhhh, the old hemisfair lower deck migration.

welcome to ST, to bad your not Dallas Maverick material.

I loved that movie Coming to America. That's the only Romantic Comdey I liked. That movie was the especially when Samuel L Jackson comes to rob the joint and Eddie Murphy's like: Please abstaine from using any more profanities in the vicinity of these people or I will be forced to thrash you.

I think my favorite is when Eddie Murphy is describing Monday Night Football to his boss and he looks at him real stern and says "Son, listen up, I'm only gonna say this once. If you want to continue working for me, stay off the drugs."

I can remember seeing
a Kansas City Kings/Spurs game......I believe Cotton was coach then too.

Yeah, I'd forgotten he used to coach them.

I remember one game I was at... I must have been like 5 or 6 years old, and it when Mark Olberding was playing for Sacramento. My dad and Olberding were talking before the game, and he said he missed all the Mexican pussy in San Antonio. One of his teammates kind of whispers, 'hey Mark, there's a kid here', and Olberding turns to me and says "Come on, he likes good pussy too."

Well, he's licking his lips here:

ing support pillars...

I always thought the interior of Hemisfair Arena looked pretty cool, unlike those cookie-cutter coliseums in Phoenix, Portland, Indiana and Richfield that didn't have an upperdeck. But I'm guessing watching a game there wasn't so great. The support pillars look like stilts:

Not to mention if you had a lower level seat under the overhang---not obstructed by a column---you couldn't see the scoreboard.
