What are the chances....
Unreal !!! all this time I've been jealous of you San Antonians who get the opportunity to see Spurs players in SA ...
I've never been in SA, and I didn't expect to se a Spur in Montreal on a Friday night.
I was walking with two friends on the bars and clubs filled St-Laurent boulevard, when I bumped into a big guy ; it was the Red Rocket ! (by the way, he is much stronger than me, so he barely felt the bumping ) ; I look at the guy, and I'm like : "no way"
My second observation : " damn, he is really tall "![]()
I didn't talk to him, I guess he didn't want to be disturbed on a night out ; I guess nobody here knew who he was, Montreal being an NHL city, and Bonner being so low-key ; of course, he wasn't really dressed up. I'm sure he would have been really surprised if somebody here recognized him in MTL.
Man, it's so weird, but so cool![]()

U don't have to tell me... I still can't believe it
I guarantee my meager savings that he was smokin some sardaciously malicoious ganja.....
Crossing into canada used to be as easy as skipping class, now its like survivor. And I'm talking regular crossings. Even the rural crossings are like survivor. He went there to smoke chiba. CBF guarantee right there.
You should have told him whats up or something. He seems like the kind of guy that would be cool and take the time.
Yeah, now I regret it ; next time I'll meet a Spurs player will be in 2098![]()
Yeah thats what I was thinking when I read your post. Its not every day a player from your favorite team is in town. And on top of that, probably one of the most fan friendly players too.
Let's just go ahead and rub it in! Good find friend!
Yeah, that's why I regret it ; no reason to be intimidated.
But hey, he's just a human being after all
Hearing a lot of stories about Bonner partying at bars. Glad to see he is so focused on training, conditioning and shooting after signing that $9 million contract.
That's cool you saw Matt Bonner, Lefty.![]()
Uh are you sure? He was at UMass yesterday with his brother playing against their team and working out. And he's leaving for Sao Paulo, Brazil for the NBA Cares program tomorrow evening or Monday morning. Not sure he would be flying to Montreal to party. Doesn't sound like him. Before he leaves, he usually is spending time with his family and friends. Not saying you didn't see him in Montreal but doesn't add up. You sure you didn't see Brian Scabaline?

Oh, don't be such a pessimist. You'll be dead long before then.
I'm 100 % sure it was him ; Montreal is like a one hour flight from Massachussets (we have plenty of Bostonians who come here to drink because they are under 21) , so I'm sure he had the time to come here after working out .
He wasn't alone yesterday, and maybe he was with his bother.
Thanks Angel
yeah.

Ok I saw him again today
Didnt have time to snap a picture; he was with a friend looking for a cab
Damn he is tall
I'm sure it was him, as he is involved in charity events here, along with Arcade Fire
You should have trashed him this time because the Matt Bonner experiment clearly failed.
He was probably in Montreal because of the highly publicized free Arcade Fire concert.
I know he's doing a basketball tourney with them.
Yep
I went to the free concert (outdoors), but just because it was down my building
So you didn't offer him a sandwich. smh
I actually met and talked to Matty before a Spurs game. Very personable guy.
No, I did not tell him I preferred if he would still be in Toronto![]()
