AEG VP(I believe it was) said that the Staples Center last night sold 1.2 million dollars worth of Kobe merch and the record was 1 mil at the O2 Zep show.

I don't know what that means but it's kinda amazing, I think. Personally, I always disliked Kobe and was happy he was finally going away so I wouldn't have bought anything but that means absolutely nothing.
