Sixers CEO Adam Aron, the Pat Croce of sports media in Philly sports, is at it again. He’s asking fans for input as to whether the introductory press conference for Andrew Bynum and Jason Richardson should be open to the fans.
IMPORTANT TWITTER QUESTION NEED YOUR ADVICE: Should initial Bynum/Richardson Philly press conference be open so 76ers fans can attend?

This sounds like an awesome idea, provided fans aren’t given the mic to ask questions. Keep in mind, the media of which I am not a card-carrying member) does have a job to do.
Andrew Bynum will be introduced to Philly shortly. Will the fans be invited?
If you are a season ticketholder, do not worry about your seat. Aron has thought of that already.
We’d have reserved area for full and partial season ticket holders RT
@homer2680 no!Only ticket holders. I just purchased a 10-game plan.— Adam Aron (@SixersCEOAdam) August 12, 2012
There could also be a Miami heat-style intro:
Good idea. With THE TRADE, our confetti budget will be crazy high this year! RT
@kissmeimbish yes and blast off confetti!!! haha!— Adam Aron (@SixersCEOAdam) August 12, 2012
Honestly, this guy has never wavered from being a man of the fans and including us in the team’s plans. To let Mr. Aron know your thoughts, hit him up on Twitter: @SixersCEOAdam. And, while your at it, give us a follow, too. Thanks.
This is a good idea! Let the fans meet and greet Andrew and show him some love. Andrew who has been mistreated and underrated by Laker fans and will prove to LA the 76′s has the best center Andrew Bynum. Welcome!
Glad you think so. I agree. Let’s give Bynum a passionate, intense and proud reception!
ANDREW BYNYM IS VERY SOFT AND CLUMSY, AND VERY IMMATURE. THANKS PHILLY FOR TAKING OUR TRASH AWAY.
BY THE WAY, GOOD LUCK TRYING TO MAKE PLAYOFFS, THAN AGAIN YOU ARE IN THE EAST COAST WHERE YOU CAN BE 10GAMES BELOW 500 AND STILL BE IN A 5TH SEED. LOL.
