"the bullet" wins!!

picture this...
shakopee resident, tony bonsante,
took top honors last night in the
main, feature event at the target
center as boxing returns to minnesota
by defeating troy "TNT" lowry.

bonsante became better known as a
contestant on the low rated reality show
"the contender" that ran for just one
season on network television and then
hopped over to a cable station later on
(hosted by none other than sylvester
"sly" stalone)...i confess....i never missed
an episode! :) it was really moving, actually.
shakopee is located just south of eden
prairie so many local folks rooted for tony.

anyway, we had the greatest seats!
3rd row off the floor right by the ring.
it may be my new guilty pleasure!
i'm telling you, my sister and i are already
planning a return on january 12th to see tony
go up against st. paul, east side's, matt vanda.
a punk with a wrap sheet and anger management
issues.
gary and i sat next to him in the new(er) NBA restaurant
in the target center earlier in the evening.
one look at this guy's nose and we both were like,
"i think he might be fighting tonight!"
i noticed that he didn't eat any of his fries and
he was working on a tall bottle of aquafina.
then i over heard him say that he would be fighting
around 9:30. he won his fight.
it was really great!

i regret not bringing my camera.
there were plenty of them around.
i'll definately bring it along in january!
my sister shot some pix with her phone.
