Day Two of Final Four Houston with kids, sports celebrities and Jim Nantz.
The Tailgate Tip-Off has a full-sized Wendy's sign like outside of a restaurant.
It almost looked like a full-sized Wendy's...period. There were also loads of basketball games, a Ferris wheel, a stage for CBS's live broadcast crew and a big performance stage where, when we were there, kids were being challenged to name songs from just a few bars. They were better at it than the emcees. Just saying.Speaking of the CBS stage, they were live for at least a few minutes while we were there.
Former NBA stars Carlos Boozer and Grant Hill were on the floor along with plenty of folks from the broadcast world like Bill Rafferty and Tracy Wolfson. We spied Ernie Johnson of TNT's Inside the NBA fame, but we did NOT see Charles Barkley, who should be around this weekend, or Kenny Smith. But, we did see Sir Charles' oversized head on a Capital One booth inside Fan Fest if that counts.Everywhere you looked were hoops, big ones and small, some for kids and some for adults.
Maybe it's us, but we don't feel like a trim at Fan Fest seems like a good idea? They even had a digital board showing the waiting list and while it wasn't full, it wasn't empty either.Megan wasn't scheduled to go on for six hours, but they weren't taking any chances. Eventually, they would get warmed up by J.I.D. and Omar Apollo, but we all know who the main event is at the AT&T Block Party.
