TSG's 4th Anniversary / Jordan CG 11 Midnight Release Party

Yesterday was the release date for the most highly anticipated Jordan retro of the year, the cool grey Jordan 11s. This pair of Jordan 11s in this particular colorway were originally released to the public in 2001. Almost 10 years later, what better way to celebrate the release of a highly anticipated shoe than to have a party before selling the shoes at midnight? That's what Nike Atlanta of Lenox Mall did yesterday, while also hosting TheShoeGame.com's fourth anniversary party. There were several giveaways throughout the night, along with music, food, and a ton of people. Three of the giveaways were pairs of the CG 11s, none of which I won. When it came time to purchase the shoes, I couldn't bring myself to do that either due to my priorites. Eventhough I was not able to get my hands on a pair of the CG 11s, I had a nice time at the event. I know one thing is for certain, if the rumors of the Jordan Concord 11 retros being next year's big holiday release, then TSG's fifth anniversary party is going to be crazier than this year's party. I will be sure to be there early, and have money in hand to purchase my pair at midnight.

Here's a recap of the event:

The line was crazy, and there were still about 100 more people lined up behind me. To get an idea of how crazy it was, the event started at 9:30pm, and nike only let 5 people in at a time. I didn't get in until 10:20pm.


When we finally got in, the store was packed from wall to wall

DJ Greg Street of V.103 Atlanta and Yung Joc were in the building



I wish I had the funds to purchase a pair of the 11s for myself, but times are hard at the moment. Reseller prices on Ebay, Niketalk, and the SoleCollector forums are through the roof for this particular pair of shoes, which retailed at $175 at the time of its initial release. I will get these one day, just not now. My birthday is next month, so I might just treat myself to this pair of shoes...

My Turn Now (You Be Killin Em) Promo Video

I've tried to be Mr. Friendly collab w/ other up and coming music artists, bloggers, and producers, but the lack of communication on their behalf is their problem not mine. I'm building my own team of artists and producers to work on a few projects to promote myself and what I stand for. All of these other singers and emcees can either get down, or lay down cause Mr. Friendly has left the building...
