OT: Rondo gets some love in Israel 

Post#1 » by P2 » Tue Jul 1, 2008 6:20 pm

First off, I am not from the U.S. I was born in Russia, grew up in Germany and now live in Israel. I am regularly posting on this site and am probably the biggest fan in Israel. I am responsible for the 2007-08 Boston Celtics season on Wikipedia, and already started doing the 2008-09 page.

Anyway, here's the point of my post. Ever since Rondo got drafted, I always wanted to take a pic of that store and post it, but somehow never did so. It is a shoe store in the center of Tel Aviv on one of the main streets (Dizengoff), and just have a look at the name and colors of it. ;D Coincidence, isn't it?

(I reduced the size - it is originally 3488x2616. And if you're going to use it anywhere, please give me credit.)

Find me a single Dizzengoff vendor who knows who Rajon is... Probably named after their nephew Doron and they've decided that scrambling the letters would be very, very clever.

I'll be there in September. Maybe I should drop off a Rondo poster for them...
