Super fan Jimmy Goldstein becomes immortal according to an article in the LA Times. He of the outlandish dress code, favoring Snakeskin Mark Heisler said, did the impossible, and not only got into an Olympic basketball game but wrangled his way, without press credentials, into a post game press conference, IN BEJING. Here's what Mark said about "Jimmy":
.............................................................................................
BEIJING -- For years Jimmy Goldstein, the Los Angeles superfan with the wild wardrobe -- he's especially fond of snakeskin, so if you’ve ever seen him, you'd remember him -- has been courtside at every big NBA game, whether the Lakers or Clippers were involved or not, not to mention sitting in on the postgame news conferences -- without credentials.
...........Meanwhile, NBA officials, who are here with the U.S. team, were celebrating, having never been able to keep Jimmy out of a single event in their entire careers.
Five minutes later, Fran Blinebury of the Houston Chronicle told me, there was Jimmy in the news conference.
We’re not worthy.

Gotta love a guy like this!!
