After a long hiatus, the first thing I post up is more sneakers…I’m beginning to think I have some sort of fetish or something (lol, actually I KNOW I do). Anyway, first up is the remake of the Team Series SB Gucci Dunk Hi. I was a fan of these since I first saw them; however, I was (and still am not) a fan of the 4-digit price tag. Anyway, they will be re-releasing sometime this year…word “on the streets” is probably a Holiday ’09 drop which would be fantastic. Check the pics…
OGs on the left and re-release on the right…not quite the original, but still amazing!
Next up is an amazing discovery, apparently blue lobsters are real!
…however, the blue-hued crustaceans are not currently my point of interest. The blue lobsters I am speaking of are a dope concept, conjured up by a skate/sneaker/lifestyle shop of the same name (Concepts aka Cncpts). The “Blue Lobster SB Dunks” are the sequel to last summer’s original Lobster SB release. I wasn’t a fan of the colorway last year, but this time around all those different shades of blue really do it for me. Just as the initial release of last year’s pair was ultra-limited, the same is to be expected for this pair with an exclusive premier @ Cncpts. A word to the wise though, you do not have to get them from Concepts. My bro waited about a week after the Concepts release last year and got them @ Sole Brother (minus the cool packaging, but for a substantially lower price than $250). If any place in Virginia gets them, they will make a nice addition to my collection.
I’m not sure how long this is gonna last, but I’m going to watch it anyway…at least the first episode. I’m thinking that Kanye needs to make his guest appearance early on in the show, just in case it’s a flop.
These places (and the dishes they serve) are not for the health conscious or faint of heart. Heart Attack Grill is home of the Bypass Burger (single, double, triple, and QUADRUPLE). The Quad contains a whopping 8000 calories, which is the recommended caloric intake for 4 days.
Big Mama’s & Papa’s Pizzeria is home to the 54″x54″ pizza, which is a staggering 2,916 square inches in surface area. It is the largest deliverable pizza in the world! Supposedly it serves 50-70 people.
Well after losing to the Orlando Magic, LeBron James (puppet version) returned home only to be heckled by young neighbor kid, Lil’ Dez.
Apparently, the loss (along with the annoying neighbor kid) were too much to bare for puppet LJ and according to The Onion…well, I’ll just let you read…
“Upon returning to his apartment fresh off advancing to the NBA Finals, Kobe Bryant Puppet discovered his roommate and rival, Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James Puppet, lying dead in their bathtub. Los Angeles police officials stated there was no evidence of foul play, as the deep lacerations on James’ felt wrists appeared to be self-inflicted. “I knew he was upset about losing to the [Orlando] Magic, but I never thought he would do something like this,” the shocked and fabric-based representation of Bryant told reporters, his facial expression stoic and his eyes unblinking. “Maybe I should have seen it coming. One minute LeBron was happy and covering the apartment with talcum powder, and the next he was playing video games and not wanting to be disturbed. Maybe it’s my fault for putting my championship rings on display in our apartment.” The puppet LeBron is the fifth roommate of either the puppet or real-life Bryant to commit suicide.”
