Biggel at the court!


The much-awaited basketball invitational with Congressman Lord Allan Velasco and Joseph Biggel of PBB Season 4 attracted a huge crowd at the Mogpog Covered Court. This game saw Biggel fans screaming out loud the moment he stepped into the court. The popular PBB ex-housemate was then besieged by fans wanting his autograph or their photos taken with him.

No doubt about it, Biggel simply attracts fans of all ages, probably why he could hardly say no to those excited fans approaching him with their celphones or digi-cams for that
'picture picture please!'



Then there was a sense of uneasiness in the crowd when an unsmiling referee approached Biggel and briskly led him to the scorer's table where some basketball staff were seated.
It was their turn for souvenir shots with Biggel 
lang naman pala. 
Shouts of 'Biggel' turned to 'gigil, gigil' and there was laughter!  

It appears that neither team was under extreme pressure throughout the friendly match as the crowd cheered for Biggel. But the equally good-looking Congressman Velasco also got loud cheers from the crowd with his fast break attacks.

The mood of the evening with everyone smiling with Biggel and Velasco, this photo was taken during a break.

Scoreboard during the last ten minutes:
Velasco Team, 73; LNMB , 66

Team Velasco with Biggel started well and controlled the game from start up to the last two minutes. 

The final scoreboard reading.

Things changed when the score was suddenly tied at 
83-83 during the last two minutes.
So the match played at the Mogpog Covered Court last night ended up with Liga ng mga Barangay beating Team Velasco 87-83.


And Biggel was besieged by the fans again after the game.

Overheard from this fan: "Kumusta na si Tin?"


Most definitely an enjoyable basketball evening with 
Velasco Team and Biggel, an evening of absolute "GV" (good vibes).
Till the next invitational with Biggel, then!
