During last years Lend a Helping Can, our friends at Primary Bank offered us a trip for 2 to Philadelphia to see the Sixers play the Miami Heat, and meet NH native and Miami Heat star Duncan Robinson! Our friend Tom was high bidder, and he brought his son Ben with him on what turned out to be an awesome night! We took a private plane to Philly and were led through the arena by Miami Heat staff. They took us thru the players tunnel, the VIP area for some food, and then up to the club seats to watch the game! After, we went back to where the locker rooms are to meet Duncan. Here's a few pics of the night - with a VERY special thank you to BILL GREINER for being such a gracious and generous host!
And we're off -
We be rollin.......don't be hatin' - hahaha
Took some heat for ordering a Philly "Cheese" Steak- and told em to hold the cheese!!!
Hey man! I DON'T LIKE CHEESE! ESPECIALLY THE GOOEY FAKE CHEEZ WHIZ THEY PUT ON THE SANDWICHES DOWN THERE! haha-
What do you want me to say???
And for the record- I guess I have a problem eating ANYTHING that has the word WHIZ in it!!
Having said that- the sandwich was actually very good!
Got to meet Duncan after the game - he was very gracious and such a good dude!
And then it was back to the plane - and headed for home-
I gotta say - nothing better than walking out of a private terminal, walking 20 yards and boarding a plane. And when you land- you step out into a waiting Tahoe to take you where ever you are going! Pretty sweet! Gotta say I could get used to that s***!!! haha
Won't lie - fully reclined the seat and slept during the 75 min flight home!
And then it was goodnight...
And it WAS a VERY - GOOD NIGHT -
Thank you Bill Greiner and all the folks at Primary Bank - and thank you to Tom for being the high bidder and helping to feed families in need!
