    I'm sorry.. i know everyone's still pissed at the spurs game and how disappointing last night was, but I dont remember that greek guy being there anymore. Was he an actual VOF? Vspan only fan?

    I realize this thread might get me flamed and ignored, but damn that guy was hardcore... DaDa was that you?

    Why would he hold up a Greek flag if there were no Greek players playing?

    It was the manager of Niko Niko's, wasn't it? I think he disappeared from games when Spanoulis left, or at least he stopped bringing the flag.

    We lost a fan by trading VSpan. Not good business.

    But we recruit some argentina fans instead, even though no of them is as big as the greek fan. It's always a great trade that brought us scola.

    That man is actually the owner of Niko Niko's, which is a Greek cafe. I saw him sitting in his usual sitting area on a couple of games.

    NikoNiko's is the bomb.
    Btw he still is a sponsor of the Rockets even though Vspan left.
    He had a lyrics singing contest during one of the timeouts for the Celtics game.

    His family owns Niko Niko's. He still goes to games but he doesn't wave the flag anymore.

    Dimitri is awesome. I liked visiting with him when I went to Niko Niko's. He gave me and my wife free gyros when on our last visit before we moved to Seattle.

    That's one of the places I try to hit when I visit Houston.
