I can't even get away from the "hornets" in England! There's so many people walking around with these hats on and they have no idea about the hornets.

Nice hat though!

I always wondered, where do the proceeds for Charlotte Hornets memorablia go to? Since that throw back has gotten pretty propular lately, someones gettin' paid...

I believe all merch from the NBA is shared.

Funny thing, I was at the park shooting around with a couple of my mates last week and we saw 3 noisy little kids, 1 with a Hornets hat and another with a Bulls hat. We challenged them to first tell us on which conference Charlotte and Chicago played , all of them failed. Then name 1 former hornet player and/or current/former Bulls player, again all of them failed. Finally my friend whose personal pet peeve is NBA snapbacks being worn by ignorant people, stole them stood on some goal posts and attached them to the wire cage thing enclosing the court/football pitch.

So it's begun for the UK huh plow.
Thankfully Australia is extremely weak in terms of Basketball compared to other sports, so I don't think I'll be seeing those Hornets caps anytime soon.

No1 loves a show off! Does it matter if they know anyone on the team? I hope they challenged u to a half court shoot out n beat u!

we weren't showing off, they tried to kick us off the court so they could play football whilst there was an adjacent field and we extracted our revenge. These were guys that knew nothing about basketball.

Well you left that part out in your original post.

I had guys ages 17-18 picking on me when I was around 12. Once I got a few years (around 16 or so) I ran across one of them and kicked his ass.

Of course I don't forget anything. Everyone might not be like that.
