While many of you were enjoying a perfect Portland Saturday (or plopped in front of your couches watching football) – the Trail Blazers’ Greg Oden was at the Rose Garden, hosting a free event to reward “Team Oden” mentors with a day of fun and games to enjoy with their kids.

The celebration, in conjunction with Greg’s partnership with the Trail Blazers and Oregon Mentors, was also an opportunity for Greg to recruit new mentors to assist more than 170,000 Oregon youth seeking some adult guidance and companionship.

For three hours, Greg hung out with the kids, signed autographs and took on all challengers at the many games located throughout the concourse. Just when it looked like he couldn’t top his skills at Guitar Hero, he went where no Trail Blazer has dared go before … at least with cameras on!

The song – should you fail to recognize it – is N’Sync’s “It’s Gonna Be Me” and could go down as one of the great moments in Trail Blazers history for those of us who had the pleasure of seeing it live.

We all know about Greg’s potential on the court, and can’t wait to see #52 in uniform. But seeing him in that environment, showcasing his larger-than-life personality and truly enjoying himself among those kids was a treat for any fan to behold … even if it meant enduring a few off-key notes!
