My claim to fame with respect to Andrew Bogut was that I owned andrewbogut.com for a time, from the time that Majerus offered him which was just after his U19 team (Emus) had a good run in the FIBA World Cup competition with Bogut starring. His blue collar background and work ethic really appealed to me so I set up a low-tech fan site with links to his highlights and games. I got to know his grandmother very well. She was the sweetest lady and Andrew’s biggest fan. She’d email me after games and shared some memorabilia with me. Unfortunately I lost touch with her a couple years after he went pro. I think Andrew bought them and his parents a huge new house; his grandparents had been living in a rural area northwest of Melbourne, his parents in Melbourne.
