My son is a black belt in taekwondo and knows it's history well. While there are various martial arts that originated in various asian locations, taekwondo is Korean.

rushed, slap together, moronic front office again.

Just like Chubby Checker.......

The Twist was a hit in 1960 and the Bucks were formed in 1968. Two radically different versions of the "60's" for "60's Night"

Like comparing 1990 to 1998 that night

One end of the decade is MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice, and the other end is electronic music, the internet, and etc.

Way different stuff.

I could see Ron Walter, "Just get some of them Karate guys out there and throw a couple fortune cookies in the crowd. That won't offend anyone"

I have always thought Clutch looked more like a chubby Mickey Mouse, so when he came over to high-five my nephews we all asked him "What are you, a mouse or a bear?" and he held up two fingers to signify bear. So then we all yelled at him that there are no grey bears. Crazy, I know, but somehow it felt good to yell at him for the confusing costume after seeing him on TV over the years.

I saw the Houston mascot slap Andrea Williams on her ass as she was walking from the "best seats in the house" to the other side of the court at one point. And there were a lot of Chinese fans around which I think is great, except for can't understand a darn word they said all night long. And they talked all night long.

Yeah someone goofed there, taekwondo is Korean.


Isn't that expected with the Bucks though?
