So after waiting their from about 415 to 515 or 520 for everyone to get their at the new House of Hoops/Footlocker in Chicago I was hoping to get Boozers autograph.

They had a stage and a guy with a mic introducing everybody and talking with them and such(the guy seemed familiar,my friend said it couldve been like one of those guys from the AND 1 Mixtapes,but he was that type of guy.)

Anyways he introduced Shannon Brown,Taj Gibson,Jannero Pargo,a highschool girl basketball player(I forgot her name but shes on Nike) the coach from Simeon,and talked to every person individually about things and we were able to ask them questions and after the coach from Simeon everyone walked off and then Boozer came and the guy also talked to him as well and we were once again able to ask questions(Ill post videos later but they weren't the best)

But after all that waiting Boozer then left as did everyone else and no one was given an autograph!!!! Especially in the beginning when people were waiting in line,Footlocker was saying of course buy a Boozer shirt so you can get it signed later or a ball(which they were selling at a ridiculous price of i think $50 to $60) and they didn't even stay to give autographs.(There was probably around 20 to 50 people their waiting to get stuff signed,so not a super lot you could say) but overall it was a disappointment somewhat.

But I'll post the videos on here in a little bit. Some people had some funny questions,one for Shannon Brown and how it is to play with Adam Morrison lol.

Yeah I know thanks man,I feel bad more for the people that bought his shirt or a ball to get signed. But yeah other than that it was still a cool experience. Shannon Brown being their surprised me the most.

Woops my bad. It was the embedded video code for the video I was trying to show.
Here go here BULLS: Video - Players and go to the 4th page and it will be "Chicago Bulls Paint The Town Red" I was wondering if they were going to do this again this year and if so when. If I'm correct I think its in September and October

Yea it was cool,still dissapointed about autographs but oh well cant do anything about it. Im actually still excited and more surprised that Shannon Brown was their,I thought it was just going to be Taj and Boozer so it was a bit more exciting seeing a few more people. (Sadly no one really cheered for Pargo when they were announcing him,I understand why but I thought if I was him,it would have been awkward as heck.) No one really cheered for the Simeon coach either or the chick. But still fun. I hope they have the Paint The Town Red thing this year,I want to see the whole team and get their autographs!!!! Lol

Well this was technically in 2009 so it is a new year this year it being 2010. So hopefully they do it as well this year because i would almost for sure have to go to this,i would probably get their in the morning and wait ahead two hours lol,especially with lines like that(the ones in the video) or even more.

It wasnt that bad,but the line pretty much grouped together to listen to them once they got their so then it became a crowded group of people lol,there was probably around 20 to 50 people at most.
