Great article.
Funny story when I was studying abroad for a summer in Rome, I had told everyone I was dying to spot Tyrone or Bootsy or one of the St. John's players abroad, despite how unlikely this was. Anyway, 2 girls from my group who were at the Gucci store saw two HUGE guys shopping. Because they knew I was on the look out for st johns players, they figured they had to ask. One of the guys played basketball, AND he did play for st johns, and they got a picture with him - Tyrone Grant. They both said he was really nice and happy to talk to them/take a picture with them.
