Students at the Brooklyn School for Collaborative Studies on Monday were treated to dinner and tickets to a college basketball tournament at Barclays Center.Somehow I think they "just" also wanted to make sure the media knew about it, too. The real gift was the dinner; the game was hardly sold out.
"To be able to see this place and have the good food and watch a good game was really fun," said Nelson Perez, an eighth grader at the school.
Most of the students live in Red Hook and suffered through the devastation of Hurricane Sandy for weeks.
...The Ruiz family was among the roughly 100 people who were bused to the arena where they had a thanksgiving meal at the 40/40 club and watched the Progressive Legends Classic.
"We just wanted to give them a moment to experience the Barclays Center, have some great food and hopefully make their lives better for a couple of hours," said Barclays Center CEO Brett Yormark.
