Dan competed in the BJ League All-Star three-point contest held in Saitama, Japan. Saitama is about 1.5 hours south of Sendai and about 45 minutes north of Tokyo. The event itself was very nice! It was a huge production with lots or pre-game activities, contests, a basketball clinic for kids and a variety of live performances. I was definitely glad I could come, but come on BJ League, a wife has to pay for her own ticket?! I thought a marriage certificate would seal the deal but apparently the quote "happy wife, happy life" doesn't apply to the Japanese ;) Don't get me wrong I had a wonderful time, but I have to remember "we're not in Kansas anymore." Saitama Super Arena - maximum capacity is 37,000. The arena features a gigantic moveable section of seating which can reduce capacity for smaller events, for the All-Star weekend it was set up for 14,000. It is also the only Japanese arena equipped especially for American football. Our great friends, Jeff and April along with their three kids came to visit us in Saitama. We met in Germany when Dan and Jeff were teammates at Ratiopharm Ulm and now they live in Tokyo. Who would have thought that we would hang out in Ulm, Germany - Milwaukee, Wisconsin - and now in Saitama, Japan! Gotta love this lifestyle!
