Actual Iverson Returning to Philly for Iverson Bobblehead Night
AI has accepted the Sixers offer to show up at the Wells Fargo Center for his own bobblehead night, tomorrow evening. Here’s the manic announcement from team C.E.O. Adam Aron.
A MIDNIGHT CONFIRMATION: ALLEN IVERSON WILL BE AT SATURDAY’S MARCH 30 SIXERS GAME on AI Bobblehead Night. He wanted to be with his fans!

The bad news: the matchup could be more enticing, as the Sixers are playing the lowly Charlotte Bobcats. The good news:
THOUSANDS OF GOOD SEATS ARE STILL AVAILABLE FOR AI NIGHT at Sixers.com. This is a game you should attend in person.

The team will also honor AI with a video tribute. From the team’s perspective, this is a nice opportunity to honor the former face of their franchise, and generate some buzz in an otherwise depressing season. But AI? I think this is all part of the plan to get himself back in a Sixers uniform.
