The Day We Met Some Trail Blazers

The boys really had the coolest experience a couple weeks ago. Or maybe just an experience that they'll recognize later as being pretty amazing.
 
Ben's company, Daimler Trucks, recently became a sponsor of the Blazers. As a result, the company had a Christmas event for all the Daimler employees at the MODA center. It was really quite a once in a lifetime experience. We got a picture at center court, got to tour the locker room, and THEN got autographs from Damion Lillard, Robin Lopez, Allen Crab, and Joel Freeland.
 
Some of the best moments of the night were definitely getting the autographs from Lillard (I was pretty star struck...he is such a GREAT player) and Seth shyly telling Robin Lopez, "You're my favorite player." Then there was the moment as we were leaving that we happened to be walking next to Allen Crabbe, and Josh starts screaming and pointing at the basketball he's holding. Josh didn't care that he's a Blazer, he just wanted the ball! Crabbe looked over like, "Who's this kid?"
Really, Sam, that's the best you can do?
