After Kobe's halftime inteview, before he returned to the lockeroom, he saw his wife and kids in the runway and said hello (all on national TV). I know we have bigger fish to fry right now, but my question is:
Has anyone ever seen a professional athelete in any sport (Golf, Boxing, Baseball, Basketball, Hockey, Football, Soccer, Tennis, etc.) kiss/hug/interact with his family during a game or match? I was floored.
It was obviously staged by the NBA's "Kobe is a good guy" PR machine, but it was still pretty unusual.
