The legend of Kobe Bryant grew once more as he became the first athlete to have his foot and hand prints cemented outside Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. How freaking cool is that!
Black Mamba supporters braved the rain and started to line up as early as 6 AM to see Bryant receive his honor usually designated for Hollywood actors such as Joan Crawford, Shirley Temple, Bob Hope, Eddie Murphy, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Johnny Depp and Adam Sandler.
The ceremony immortalizing Kobe Bryant forever, coincided with the recent movie he released with director Robert Rodriguez called “The Black Mamba” and the beautiful NBA All-Star weekend we all know and love.
If you’re keeping track, Kobe Bryant is now as famous as a Hollywood actor, has five NBA championship rings, one Olympic gold medal, 13 All-Star selection and a league MVP title. Show off.
