I talked with Leo @ last years classic and will once again seek him out. I 
look forward to the Classic each year but am a tad disappointed at this 
years roster.
The roster is located at:

It amazes me how few people show up to watch the festivities. After the NBA 
people
are counted 1000 fans at best will be there. It is great for me and my 
crowd as we get great seats but I wish more folks would show up. Later.Mike
