Not sure how I completely missed the post above from Ben. I'm claiming a glitch in the matrix.
I may have to eventually check out the Skykings. We all know how my anxiety works though so we'll see.
KAKE - Wichita's new pro basketball team draws big crowd, celebrity meet and greet at first home game
I think I saw a post of FB where Bow Wow is supposed to be making an appearance soon. So they're definitely bringing in some level of celebrity to help promote games which is pretty wise. I'm not personally someone who seeks such things out but I get it. Kevin was a great character in The Office (though Parks & Rec is better). Bow Wow I'm sure appeals to some segment of potential fans. It will be interesting to see who else pops up this season.
Regardless, the Skykings are off to a hot start

KAKE - Wichita's new pro basketball team draws big crowd, celebrity meet and greet at first home game
Brian Baumgartner, also known as Kevin from "The Office," spent the day hanging out with fans and cheering on the Wichita Sky Kings.
"I'm staying for the whole game," Baumgartner said. "As long as you know, they win. They better win."
Team Owner Ben Hamd says going to a Wichita Sky Kings game means a lot more than just great basketball.
"Cryo effects, jumbotron effects, music, t-shirts, giveaways with celebrities," said Hamd. "All of that is what you can expect from the Wichita Sky Kings."
Even though fans like Nickole had ulterior motives for being there Friday, she says she'll be back, but fans have just one question - what does Brian think of Wichita?
"So far it's been great! I've checked it out and walked around Old Town, I think it's called, a little bit," said Baumgartner. "(I) had a fantastic coffee and lunch today and yeah, I'm really, really excited to be here."
