Hawks Full Court Fest A Hit
Posted by: Micah Hart on February 9, 2009 at 8:49AM AFT
HTML clipboard The Hawks held their annual charity fundraiser tonight, holding the annual Full Court Fest at Puritan Mill.

Everyone in attendance seemed to be having a great time, as they got to mingle with the players, bid on memorabilia, and eat the food provided by Concentrics Restaurants.

The biggest draws of the night appeared to be ping pong, where Hawks F Marvin Williams was taking on all comers (and winning), and at Guitar Hero, where Randolph Morris was shredding it. I didn't get to see Othello Hunter take a crack at it, but word on the street is he can play a mean fake guitar video game as well.

On the memorabilia front, there were several great items up for bid in the silent auction. The most hotly coveted one looked to be a framed, autographed picture of Zaza Pachulia confronting Kevin Garnett during last year's playoffs (I know that's what I'd have bid on if I had the discretionary income available) - that photo is destined to become a fixture in the pantheon of all-time Hawks images by the way.

We'll have a much bigger photo gallery tomorrow taken by a real photographer (read: not me), but for now, enjoy these from the festivities:
