I will never forget that night's scene, with so many people coming especially to cheer for me.
I'm really grateful for their applause.
Bob Costa agreed to fly to Boston for free to host the event, and Magic was as gracefully charming as ever.

My mother made a rare appearance in Boston to watch the game, my son Conner was still a baby then, he helped me raise my jersey to the basket hoop.
We raised over one million US Dollars for 33 different charities.
We donated money to many organizations, it was difficult to choose who should receive the funds, as many of them were deserving.
I remember at that time, Conner really liked Barney's show, so I suggested donating money to the public television station that broadcasts it.
