| King James Places Autographed LeBron VIIs on UCSD Campus Posted: 02 Aug 2010 01:30 PM PDT Multiple retailers nationwide may still have a few pairs of the “Cool Grey” Nike Air Max LeBron VII; however, there is only one place that possesses this shoe with LeBron’s John Hancock. Yesterday, LeBron’s Twitter feed read, “2morrow these will be sat out on UCSD (University of California, San Diego) campus for someone to find! Ill send details 2morrow. Good luck guys.” Furthermore, one of LeBron’s latest Tweets (today) said, “Just stop and drop the shoes off on campus at UCSD. They are by the track and field stadium underneath at sign No Dogs Allowed in this Area. (picture shown below)”. Although the sign reads, “No Dogs Allowed in This Area”, we wouldn’t be surprised if sneaker heads and LeBron James fans alike show up in this area scratching and clawing for this dinner.
