    Just Got home. It was a successful Event. I came in a little bit late. Me and my Cousins together with our kids arrived just about David Diaz has to do his workout. People were appreciative and give Diaz a hand after each workout. Nothing impressive and some fans egg Diaz to hit harder. But David is appreciative and never insulted. He really a likable guy with sense of Humor.

    Next workout is Anna Julaton but interupted right away with Pacman's entrance. Crowd number more than doubles that of the SF crowd last Feb. Anna then did some Pads with Roach. Nice showing for Anna, good technique and nice left hook and Right straights.

    Then Pac's turn. Crowd gets Crazy. Pac shows speed and Power. He's in shape. I was at Ringside with my Kids sitting in the Apron. Got hi 5s with Pac after the workout. He did some speedball but speed ball area's in the corner and mostly Media guys has some good views. While Pac doing his, Buboy Fernandez give Vernie Torres some Pad work, he's not that Bad.

    Authograph time, and it's gone Crazy, everybody's pushing to get to Pac. No order, The strongest and insistent gets to Pac 1st for Authograph and Pix. My kids get their Gloves authographed then we pull out as the Crowd was rushing in. I got no pix with Pac but got some with Julaton, Fernandez, Pac's 1st trainer Salgado and Donaire and his GF who came in late. My little boy got a video of him getting Pad work with Fernandez which is really cool. My cousins and Nephews and niece got their pix with Pac. I''m waiting for the rush to die down but never did. I tried to get a pix with my kids but Pac was ready to go. It's OK I'm sure Pac will be back here again in the Bay-area. I think he got the warmest recepcion here than in any Cities in the US.

    BTW... Somebody Hacks Pacland!!!

    I ended up not going because of a few things, but I regret it now. However, I'm glad to see that it was extremely crowded there and hard to get a picture with Pac. :D I would really, really regret not coming if the crowd turned out to be smaller and Pac had time to take a lot of pics.

    You'll standout if you were there. There's about 90% Filipino Crowd. Maybe 5% Mex and 5% others. It could be 6% others if you showed up.:hey

    Did that one Asian market right next to the gym get a ton of extra business today?

    I just got the latest Ring Magazine too. It features Pac showing his house and the usual activities he has while at home. It has the Pac-Diaz Preview too.

    And one more significant article are about the BEST of TIMES ERA section. It has ALi era at Heavy, SRL-duran era at Welter, Arguello era at Supfeather, Armstrong era at Lighweights, Basilio-SRR era at Middleweights, Pryor era at Jr Feathers and Pac-MAB-EM-JMM-Hamed Era at Featherweight. Most at guys who topped that Eras are top 10 ATG. That includes Pacquiao. That's why I'm following his Career all the way.

    I don't know... I was mostly inside, we parked across the street by Pizzahut Parking. They get our business after the event.

    Inside the Gym they offer Hotdogs and Sell Souvenir $20 Pac-Diaz T shirts and $15 Caps. I Bought 2 hats for my 2 kids. They did good with that. they don't have the same in the SF event. I guess they made Money during the Pac-JMM2 Shirt sales in Vegas and Bring that business on this tour. It's good Idea.
