The Time We Saw a Gator in Chicago

One of A's friends scored student (i.e. cheap) tickets to a Chicago Bulls game, and since it was inexpensive amusement, we jumped at the opportunity.  They played the Phoenix Suns, and even though they lost it was a tight game (105-111 at the end). 

Besides the huge draw of hot dogs and screaming fans, there was another reason we were excited to see the Bulls play.

Anybody recognize that ponytail?

Or that crazy free throw?

If you were at the University of Florida during the 2005-2006 or 2006-2007 season, then you know that's Joakim Noah, part of the legendary Gators team that brought home back-to-back NCAA championships.  (Yes, we're still proud!)

Noah played a pretty decent game, and we even got to see him in person!

Okay, so not really "in person", but he's too famous now for the likes of us!  All in all it was a fun evening, but I don't think we'll be calling ourselves Bulls fans anytime soon.
