Lucky Iverson fans up for meet and greet

MANILA, Philippines – More than just watching Allen Iverson call the shots as his Ball Up streetball team take on former NBA superstars and local cage names, 40 lucky fans will also have a chance to be up close and personal with the 11-time All-Star.

Iverson will be in town early November for “All In”, a charity basketball event presented by PCWorx for the benefit of Gawad Kalinga. The former NBA MVP will have Gilbert Arenas, Eddy Curry, and DerMarr Johnson in tow.

The promo that started last Wednesday and will run until October 9 will give the first 500 ticket buyers, any section, the chance to be invited to the closed door shootaround of Iverson and Ball Up on November 5 at the Mall of Asia Arena two hours before the game.

Tickets may be purchased online at www.smtickets.com, all SM Tickets outlets, and PCWorkx branches. Prices are pegged at P6,500 (VIP), P5,500 (Patron), P4,500 (Lower Box), P2,000 (Upper Box), and P600 (General Admission).

From the 500 lucky patrons, 40 fans will be randomly selected on the spot for photos and autographs with Iverson and his team.

Winners will be announced on October 13 on PCWorx All In Basketball Game’s official Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Aiming to raise funds for Gawad Kalinga to build homes for impoverished families, “All In” is organized by I-Kurot and supported by Samsung, NBA Café, Accel (official outfitter), Solaire Resort and Casino (official residence), Rapoo, AOC, and WhenInManila.com.
