I just spent the last few hours at the CIAA Tournament for the first time in my life. As I type this I'm still sitting in the arena watching the games. I know the event has been in Charlotte for a while now, but Ive never been.
This is a great event. Not only is it great basketball but there is such a feeling of unity. Its a place to see and be seen. People are dressed in everything from sweats to their Sunday best... and then some!
I saw just about every local news organization with their cameras. One station even did the news live from the Arena (twice). I know WBTV had Grammy award winner Anthony Hamilton on their show.
There was such a crowd to see him and take pics with him. I skipped out on that.
Great food, great basketball, great fun... and all for a great cause.
CIAA... you are welcome in my city anytime!
