Ooh, I'm so jealous.I expect full reports and pictures from everyone lucky enough to have gone.
Who went?
It was fun. Sean Elliott, Pop and Brent Barry all had their funny moments. The food was good. And the company was great (thanks Angel and Spurschick for organize our table).
So what did you guys think?
I saw Boutons there taking pictures, so I'm sure he has some good ones.
It was nice to meet, Misty finally.
Ooh, I'm so jealous.
I just had a good lunch as well but by myself. Ham & Turkey Sandwich
That was fun!
....although I still can't believe that Blazer part.

I know, I was shocked.
It was a nice lunch- good food great company
There were several great slide presentations - one showing the guys summer community outreach ( with Katrina victims and at the schools in V.I.) and another one of game time highlights.
While we ate our salads, waiting for the team ( who was late) to arrive, we watched the final quarter of game seven. I got to see Rasho spin again- my favorite part.
The team came in through one of the many side doors. It was on the opposite end of the room but I caught a quick glimps of most of the guys before they entered as a team.
Rasho looked fantastic, as always!! Beno looked sharp too. Slovenia should be proud. =)
Gino was very handsome too. No surprise there.
Really the whole team looked really nice, although Sean Elliot joked that they were all violating the dress code. =)
Pop made a brief speech. He does a great Oscar the grouch impression, but you've gotta love Pop. And just so you all know, last year's championship is officially over.
Brent introduced the team this year and was absolutely hilarious. Tony has nothing on him.
Brent began by giving this great speech about the full circle we've come as a team and a community and the character it took to get us there. Blah, blah, blah! It was too touching! =)
I was dying laughing so Luckily Brent didn't keep up the charade long.
Brent said he wanted to start over and promised his entrance would be better than Tony's. So Brent had the lights dim and the d.j play music while he marched back on stage accompanied by some of the Silver dancers.
Brent started by introducing the rookies. He called all three of them on stage and said that he wanted to take the time share all the great things the rookies have accomplished so far.
After a brief pause ( crickets crickets), Brent sent all the rookies back to their chairs.
Brent had plenty of video "evidence "to go with his introductions of all the guys.
There was a:
-melodrama of Manu's many flops and then awarded him with an academy award.
- slide of Tony photos except every other one almost was of Eva,
The last pic was a picture of Eva with her last boyfriend J.C.
Brent has no clue how that picture got in there. =)
-fabricated video ( I didn't recognize the actors) of Beno and Rasho partying at Bar 11
- video of Wayne's world with Gino and Fabri's faces on the actors
- the clip of the on court altercation between Bruce and Michael Finely.
When it finished Brent made the guys hug and make up.
That is all I can remember off the top of my head. What else guys who were there?

That was actual tape of a pretty popular skit from Saturday Night Live.
i'm sure you guys had fun.
while i was at school eating crappy lunch
Sounds like that was a fun event.
Great recap thanks! Sounds like you guys had a blast
I wasn't in the best of shape, watched too much hurricane coverage, and busted by ass yesterday pruning foliage for today's bulk pickup (4:35 PM, they ain't come yet). And my new chainsaw wouldn't start, yanked by frickin shoulder to and still no go. Chainsaw shop smelled it, "old gas". WTF? I get old, but gasoline gets old? ok, so now it starts.
Anyway, I didn't get as many pics as last year. This luncheon seemed much faster paced and shorter than last year, but was really excellent and had tons of great laughs. Pop was vintage Pop. He promised the Spurs would make the playoffs!!
Brent did the team introductions, and had some incredibly funny, cutting videos which must have take a lot of time to put together:
"Brent, Beno, Rasho" out clubbing (was a clip from SNL of Jim Carrey, Will Ferrel, Chris Kattan as disco jerks in a club).
An "old timey, scratchy, sepia" style video of Manu called "The Flop", and then Brent presented Manu with an gold Oscar statue for "acting", which Manu went up and received!
A rapid slideshow of Tony, Tony, Eva, Tony, Tony, Eva, Tony, Eva,Eva,Eva,Eva,Eva,Eva,Eva,Eva,Eva, and ended/stopped with a photo of Eva and some other dude. ouch!! People were in tears, seems like everybody got the joke.
Showed twice a montage of Bruce and Michael bumping and shoving the out of each other last year in a Spurs/Mavs game. Bygones are truly bygones.
Gotta get a new camera with less delay between pics.
I had about 2 cubic yards of boobs at my table, and one sweet young thing but she was her parents.
There was a really cute blond chick next to me. and she has nice face, too!!
When rotating in my chair from the table to watch the stage, I kneed the fat lady next to me twice in the butt. It was clearly a blocking foul by her butt. She should have been forced to buy 2 seats. First time she said "no problem", 2nd time she wasn't so cool.
Pics to follow

Rasho was not cooperative.
First he forgets to pick me up and there was no room for me at his table.
Then he stood and sat took quickly for me to get a good pic.
I was too far back anyway, but still.
You can never have too much of Rasho! B E A UTIFUL!
Nonsense! You looked pretty. =)

I didn't take any pictures of players - them. Instead, I took pictures of some super cool people at the best table in the place.
Thanks for posting the pictures Boutons and Spurschick.
Very cool.
Ditto that! =)
