Yao-za

Weird Kid, Baby Sis, Spydermonkey and I caught Year of the Yao tonight...again, courtesy of Weird Kid's girlfriend. (How is she getting easier access to all these preview passes? *jealous*)

Yao Ming is a pretty endearing guy. Can you imagine moving halfway around the world to play sports, not knowing the language at all?

As a sweet bonus, we won two of the 10 Yao books they gave away as door prizes. And then... at the end of the show they handed us free posters, headbands, and mini-basketballs and backboards/nets. Free stuff rocks my world, yes it does.

Tomorrow night I get to check out Rex Navarrete live. Who knew he'd ever come to Calgary? I'm excited.

It feels like summer vacation. Too bad I haven't earned a summer vacation. I miss being a student.
