Popular Post crymdg2 Posted December 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 4, 2018 My 6 year old son, who may be slightly Billiken obsessed and holds Javon Bess in the same regard as Michael Jordan, got a picture with Javon last season. We got it blown up and printed out. Yesterday afternoon I sent Michael Wilson a message asking if I could get the picture to them and have Javon sign it for my son. Not only did he immediately respond in the affirmative, but he says to drop by today at 10. I show up and Michael says Javon is downstairs and can just sign it now. Needless to say this will be a Dad present... sorry Santa. I've won Christmas. I freaking love this team and the staff. #TeamBlue Forever!

Billikenbooster Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Another cute story about drymdg2's son. They actualyl sit right behind me in sec102. In the middle of the game 2 games back, the boy taps me on the shoulder. He then asks me if I would like the Billiken ball toss ball he had just snagged. I told him it was all right, he could keep it. But he said he had another at home, and he wanted me to have it. He was just so sweet and caring, he just wanted me to have a ball. Of course I accepted, saw another young boy in front of us. I asked if it was OK with him if I gave it to the other boy. He consented, and two little fellas were happy that night. Truly caring child...speaks to the child and the parents. mhg majerus mojo, jimbofive, crymdg2 and 4 others like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SluSignGuy Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 My favorite story is that one time @crymdg2 took his son to Chaifetz to see a Disney show a few years ago. The son, however, was sorely disappointed when he arrived to Chaifetz to learn that he would not be seeing the basketball team. According to Grandpa, the grandson thought Chaifetz was the basketball players home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Drew the kid that was on the video running around singing Jingle Bells mixed in with the Billiken fight song? I loved that video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crymdg2 Posted December 5, 2018 Author Share Posted December 5, 2018 Appreciate all the kind words everyone! He's a pretty awesome kid! Here's his video he wanted to make a few months ago. And @RiseAndGrind, he's definitely the cool kid of the family. No question about it.
