At The Knicks Game with "Judah"

It's always a trip to go to a Knicks game with Judah and this past Monday was no exception. I picked him up from the residence at 5 p.m. and brought him back to Manhattan. Strangely, there was little traffic so we were in the city just past 5:30.

We discussed dinner options. I mentioned a new place near the Garden, Olympic Pita, and he was game. So, instead of spending $20 at KD, I got to spend quite a bit more. But it was worth it watching Judah get a major g'shmak from his steak, fries and rice. He is only 12 but he ate me under the table. Keep in mind that it's probably because he hardly eats at the residence except on Shabbos (when we order food from a take-out place and he gets to eat some meals with families)because they serve him dreadful "airline food". He cleaned his plate and it was off to the Garden.

The tickets we got were very good but not the courtside seats we had last year. This was not going to stop Judah from trying to get to the court and get some autographs. I told him they would probably not let him down but I let him try.

Of course, 30 seconds later, he's on the court. It is hard to describe how charming Judah is. Adults seem to fall in love with him at sight. In this case, he went over to a man in the courtside seats and the next thing I see is the man asking the security gurad to let Judah down. The man even tried to get a player to interrupt his warmups and give Judah an autograph but it didn't quite happen.

Judah was very into the game and was very pleased with the result, a 6 point Knicks victory. We look forward to seeing him on Purim.

JUDAH IS STILL LOOKING FOR A PERMANENT HOME. IF YOU HAVE ANY LEADS FOR SOMEONE WHO MIGHT BE WILLING TO FOSTER HIM WITH A VIEW TO ADOPTION, PLEASE CONTACT ME!
