Meeting Shane Battier!!!
I'm taking Andrew plus one friend to the Celtics/Rockets game next Monday night followed by a meet and greet with Shane Battier. It's Andrew's birthday present which he has deemed 'Cool!'
The time is out of joint, O cursed spite!

Couple suggestions:Bostondevil wrote:I'm taking Andrew plus one friend to the Celtics/Rockets game next Monday night followed by a meet and greet with Shane Battier. It's Andrew's birthday present which he has deemed 'Cool!'
1. Make sure he knows about your play. ;)
2. Ask him who his Daddy is.
That's a great B-day present.

Actually, I think you should write a play entitled "Meeting Shane Battier!"devildeac wrote:Couple suggestions:Bostondevil wrote:I'm taking Andrew plus one friend to the Celtics/Rockets game next Monday night followed by a meet and greet with Shane Battier.

Neat! I like the play idea, too, but what a terrific birthday present.

Do you remember the poster that Bethany Peters used to take to Cameron when Shane played at Duke? It was a Gold Mastercard with Shane's likeness on it that read "Shane Takes Charge!" Perhaps you could do something similar - I'm sure he'd remember the original and would love it!

Re: Meeting Shane Battier!!!
Way cool. What a great birthday happening. Shane is my most favorite basketball ever. Of course, he did great at Duke but more important to me, because of who he is as a person.

Re: Meeting Shane Battier!!!
Duke Club of Boston organized the event and I put in for tickets the second I found out about it. No time to question the expense (3 tickets at $100 a piece) but in terms of birthday memories? Priceless.
