Went to the AVP event in Sacramento on Friday. What a great event. One of the things I love the most about the AVP is how accessible the players are to the fans. Not only do you run into the players in between matches, but a good deal of games are on the outer courts where you can stand within a few feet of the action. Too cool. I went on one of the two qualifiying days and it was probably better than coming on one of the big days on the weekend becuase the crowd wasn't bad at all. It felt like old homecoming week as I was reunited with a ton of folks I've played volleyball with in the past. I even ran into some friends who had come all the way from San Diego for the event. I was also able to watch most of the action from the MVP section after a friend had worked his way onto the stage. The best part of the day was getting to talk to some of the players in person. It was surreal watching Karch play against Fonoi while Misty May was standing right next to our group. Great day.

When i saw the headline of this blog I thought it was going to be about ALIEN VS. PREDATOR! AVP is short for ALIEN VS. PREDATOR!!!!
Dude, way to suck it in for the pic. And what's around your neck?? Is that some stupid hat or even worse: do you still have Croakies?? I didn't even think they made those anymore. You can cut the girls out of this photo and it would be 1989 all over again. Thanks for bringing back the memories. I hated that late 80s! Oh well, Wang Chung, buddy.....the post was radical!
you are funny kev - no, that was my big hat strap and not croakies...ha.
