Kyrazy scenes @ Kickz101
Pandemonium broke out at Kickz101 today as NBA superstar Kyrie Irving popped in to check on Melbourne's #1 NBA outlet.
Dedicated fans of the Cleveland point guard braved the cold wintery conditions, sleeping out to ensure their place at the front of the line.
By morning, the queue had extended 400 metres with estimates of roughly 1,000 hoping to get t-shirts, jersey's, shoes, posters and backboards signed.
Kyrie signed for 90 minutes before having to leave to get to a gym session.
A special thanks to Matt & Josh of Kickz101 for such a smooth operation - and an EXTRA special thanks to the Kyrie fans who made this such a special event. He was truly taken by surprise by the magnitude and dedication of his hometown supporters.
