Preferably backed by the remaining members of the Grateful Dead.

Yes, I'm a little buzzed.

Roll a baby grand out to center court.

Seriously, though, more performers turn down the opportunity to perform the National Anthem at events than you'd think. It's a pretty difficult song to sing well.

Would be great, but maybe they've already asked and he turned them down. He may wish to remain in the background because this is his son's team.

I have no inside info on that. I'm just guessing.

He looked very uncomfortable when they put him on the jumbotron and gave him a shout out one game. You very well may be right.

It would be cool to knock out a few seats and give him a lawn chair / couch next season.

True basketball fan. Drunk thinking about this at 3 am in the morning.

This passion is something we can all get behind.

LSU Basketball is on the Rise.

The guy just wants to watch his kid play ball. Can't he just do that?

Not a bad idea. Maybe Aleva could give him an audition during the off season.

In September 2010 I went to a private party at Chateau Julien Winery in Carmel, CA where Bruce played for about 40 of us. He's the real deal as far as being an entertainer.

Carmel is such a great place, especially in late September early October.

Take the PCH South and it gets even better (Big Sur).

I'm comfortable, not wealthy.

If I were wealthy, I'd live there.
