Who the Hell IS this guy?




I asked around, assuming he was at least semi-famous. The answers I got ranged from a personal friend of Pat Riley, to a super-wealthy eccentric who lived in Los Angeles and was inexplicably a Heat fan and flew out to all the games, to some weird guy who forced his way through security saying "don't you know who I am?" which they didn't, but were too afraid he might be a wealthy eccentric or a personal friend of Pat Riley.

He at least acted like he knew all the players and celebrities, and they responded to him, though it's not clear whether it was by recognition or some learned response that people who dress like this and sit courtside at games are usually important. 

He ended up having a conversation with Stephen A. Smith, which makes him about as cool as anyone who has ever been within 50 feet of Stephen A. Smith (he likes to talk).

Oh, and there was a game too, or something.
