Shawn Kemp serves as celebrity waiter at ex-NBAer James Donaldson’s political fundraiser
Posted on August 10th, 2009 by Mike under NBA, sportsHi, my name is Shawn, I’ll be your server tonight. Can I start you off with a Detlef Shrempf cocktail?
Last night, former NBA-er and current Seattle mayoral candidate James Donaldson hosted a fundraiser for his campaign at Island Soul Caribbean Cuisine in Rainier, WA. Shawn Kemp was there as a celebrity guest the help.
On August 9, mayoral candidate James Donaldson is hosting a “fund raising island party” at Island Soul restaurant in Southeast Seattle from 4-7 p.m. (suggested donation, $50). Wings, plantains, salad, coconut corn muffins, and wine will be served. Serving that fare will be none other than legendary former Sonics power forward Shawn Kemp. For all his indiscretions (hard partying, fathering multiple children out of wedlock), Kemp remains one of — if not the — most beloved Sonics ever to have worn the green and gold.
I’m no campaign manager, but he probably could have gotten the Wheedle for maitre d.
The 7′ 2” Donaldson played 14 years in the NBA from ’80-81 through ’94-95, starting his career with on the Sonics, from 1980 to ’83.
The last time we saw Kemp, he looked to be one coconut corn muffin away from eclipsing four bills on the scale.

Like all the kids and such aside, Kemp’s is one of the worst wastes of pure talent in the history of the league, yeah?

probably one of the worst wastes of leaping ability in the history of calf muscles.

I am really impressed with your writing skills as well as with the layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Either way keep up the nice quality writing, it’s rare to see a nice blog like this one today..

Hello, Neat post. There’s a problem along with your site in internet explorer, might test this? IE still is the market leader and a large element of people will omit your fantastic writing due to this problem.
