I have a history of meeting ballers & celebs at Hawks games - Jarrett Jack, Pastor Troy, Dominique Wilkins, a bunch of players from SEC teams during March Madness, and now Dale Davis!
I was stumbling out to the smoking section last night and on my way out, I noticed a tall man who looked exactly like Dale Davis. I walked outside and smoked my cigarette, came back in, walked back by the Jack Daniels bar, and I decided I would approach him. I knew who he was off top I just wanted to be 100% sure because I was a lil tipsy.
Me: You used to play basketball didn't you?
Dale: Somethin like that
Me: Yeah I know who you are, who'd you play for?
Dale: Indiana and..(me interrupting)
Me: The Blazers and the Pistons, too right?
Dale: Haha yeah somethin like that......
and so on. We went on to talk about his glory days with the Pacers and Blazers, and such.
Anyway, I talked to Dale for around 5-10 minutes. He was cool as hell and a bit drunk himself. Here's a picture that my brother and I took with him. My brother boxes, so he threw up the fist but as we took the pic Dale instructed us to "chunk up with the deuces fellas" hahaha
