He stands 6′ 9″ tall so I couldn’t help but notice him. A short ways into our conversation I popped the dumb question “You play basketball?” DUH !! I asked him his name – “Bama. I was thinkin’ it fits ’cause he would do a good job bammin anyone that got cross with him! (Strike 2 and I’m on a roll!) Acutally he’s a very nice guy and he get’s his nickname from where he’s from – Hoover/Leeds Alabama! Well come to find out he’s the center and team captain for the Livingstone Blue Bears. They are currently undefeated in the CIAA conference. ( 5-0)  He is due to graduate this May with a triple major in the business and accounting fields and is thinking about a career playing basketball. The way I see it he can’t loose either way he goes!  Quite an intelligent and nice young man with a bright future ahead.

I talked him into coming over to my place to shoot a few – photo’s that is!  We had a good time and here are a few shots from tonight.

While he was here he asked if I would take a picture of his tattoo.  No Problem.  I about fell over when I saw it.  So much detail (and such a large piece of real estate to post it on too!)   ‘Bama told me it took 16 hours total broken up into 8 two hour sessions.
