Though Kobe Bryant is out the game right now, that doesn’t stop him from being out of the community. Though Los Angeles and Celtics have been rivals for years, that didn’t stop Kobe from showing the state of Boston love. While Kobe had some idle time, he decided to go to a little Catholic school in Chestnut Hill. In his statement listed below, Professor Nick Nugent said that he was totally surprised, he was discussing with his class the logistics of the NBA, and how Kobe Bryant is a star, and next thing you know, in walks Kobe.
“I had just begun the class with an example of the how the NBA is a model of successful international marketing and how Kobe Bryant is its biggest star, when suddenly the door opened and in walked Kobe,” claims Marketing Professor Nick Nugent, who was teaching the first class of the semester. “It was surreal.”
Nugent said Bryant told students that he didn’t go to college, “but I love to learn and international marketing is something I am interested in.”
Bryant stayed in the class for two hours, taking notes, and even asking questions. He then signed autographs for the 40 students in the class, according to officials at Boston College.
