I've been lurking here for a while but decided to make my first official post about Lebron James.

Earlier yesterday I saw a video of the Chicago Shrek talking about how he wanted Lebron to sign with the Bulls.

I went to Tenor last night (incredible by the way) and Lebron came up again. We had no idea where Lebron James ended up--perhaps the most important decision of our lifetime--because it all happened during act 2. So, at the end of the curtain call, a basketball rolled out onstage with a note attached, and Jay Klaitz made the announcement. The cast signed the basketball and threw it out to a little kid in the front row. Broadway is cool.

Anyone else see it?? Updated On: 7/9/10 at 10:26 AM

I was there last night too, with a couple friends. The show was indeed fantastic, and seeing it last night was one of the best spontaneous decisions I've made in quite some time :)

I swear, when the basketball rolled on stage, my friends & I thought at first that it was just the cast being weird and quirky and using it as a BCEFA collection bucket. I know it isn't even the time of year that they collect, but that's the only situation I've encountered where the cast stops and makes a speech at the end of curtain call (barring closing nights, of course), so that was our first assumption! Shows how clueless we are. But it was fun nonetheless.

No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel.
