My Brush with Fame

So I am in Florida at a conference.  Image my surprise when we start seeing all kinds of tall young men walking around.  Soon we find out that the NBA Pre-Draft workouts are going on this week at Disney's Sports Complex.  A bunch of the coaches and players are staying at the same hotel I am.  I saw Greg Oden and some others I don't know.  A friend of mine got Greg's autograph, Kevin Durrant's autograph and numerous others.  Some other friends saw Larry Byrd.  Another person I know is actually rooming beside Larry Byrd in a different hotel (which I will not name).

Another guy told me he was working out the other morning and Moses Malone was running beside him.

So anyways, I like college ball, but I am not a huge fan so I don't recognize any of the players.  A bunch of coaches, GM's and other famous NBA people are supposed to be here but I wouldn't recgonize them.  Like I said , it was a brush with fame.  I haven't bothered to get autographs or pictures.  They put there pants on the same way I do, One leg at a time.

I thought firefighters jump into their pants and boots with both legs at the same time? Hope the conference isn't too taxing on you. It is such a terrible place to be.
