Anyone going to the HOF induction next week?

[holmcall]

Anyone attending? going to be there to do an article and cover some events...Just curious if I will see any fellow Saddonians

No. It has changed too much---and not for the better. The boxers are not as accessible and many of the non-boxers "celebs" act like real a-holes--as if anyone cared they were there. When a boxing writer can walk around with his nose in the air, it's time for me to stay away. But I used to love going there with a group of guys, cigars, and cameras.

Still, have a Basilio Sausage sandwich on me, a drink at Graziano's, some luck at Turning Stone, and have a great time. Hook up with the IBRO crowd if you can. They are good guys. Also, the memorabilia stuff at the HS used to be a good way of getting close to the boxers.

I always like the cocktail party but the dinner is a waste of money IMO. I also like the boxing, but they stopped that as well.

Yeah I know it has change a bit but I am going to cover it for the site...As far as the Cocktail parties and even the formal party I would not pay money to be snubbed....I can get that at the in-laws for free

Great inductees, though. About time!!!
