Some Old Hornets Stuff

[KendrickPanther]

I pulled some neat old stuff out of my parents attic. Brings back memories.

I also have tons more Hornets cards, Muggsy Autograph, and ticket stubs. Loved those days growing up in the 90s.

GTFO out of here with that nostalgic bullshit

I have a Muggsy Bogues life size card board cut out up in the attic. Remember as a kid always being amazed at how short he was and feeling like a bad ass until I grew up and realized 6'0" doesn't mean anything when you're white and can't dunk.

I was on the fence when the whole Hornets vs. Bobcats re-brand was at its peak. I loved the Hornets as much as I do the Bobcats, but I also wanted what was best for the team. If a re-brand meant more fans, then I was all for it. I don't want to lose another Pro Basketball team. And even though I know the team was named for its original owner, and that pisses off a lot of members on this board, I just care about the product on the floor and the direction this team is headed (which I think is very much up).

That being said, I will post (actually repost, I think I snapped this for a thread on this board a year or so ago) one of my favorite memories ever.

It was 1992 and I was 8 years old. Larry Johnson was my idol. So I wrote a letter (on notebook paper) to the front office of the Hornets. All I asked for was if he could sign the paper that I had sent him. Didn't need to be personalized. Didn't need to be on anything fancy. All I wanted was to know he read and signed a letter in which I expressed as much admiration an 8 year old could express for somebody so iconic in his life.

About 3 weeks later, the doorbell rang. No cameras. No team promotion. Just this:

A signed hat from the entire team that was personally delivered by LJ and Hugo.

Your parents are racist bastards for kepping such items in their atic.
