Coach K brought the Duke basketball team to Beijing for a friendly match against the Chinese National team. We have teacher friends at WAB who are also from North Carolina, so we decided this was an event we couldn't miss. To avoid terrible traffic heading to the MasterCard Stadium, one of the former Olympic venues, we decided to take the subway. As there is virtually no crime whatsoever in Beijing, it was totally safe--just a wee bit crowded.
We had a great time at the game and had fabulous seats. Yao Ming made a guest appearance, and we were just a few rows above the Chinese team bench, so we had an unobstructed view of him. He even went out on the court during halftime to be greeted by Coach K.
As it was getting fairly late, we decided to leave at the end of the third quarter and make our way home. Duke was up 47 to 49. Pretty fun outing for a school night!
