Gilbert in China

Fresh off the news that Gilbert Arenas will indeed remain in D.C. for the foreseeable future, Zero headed to the brand-new Adidas store in Beijing to snip a ribbon. From the release:
At midnight on July 5, adidas will open its largest adidas Brand Center worldwide in Beijing, China, the host city of this year's Olympic Games. For the first time ever, this new adidas Brand Center will offer products from both adidas divisions - Sport Performance and Sport Style including Originals and Y-3 - under one roof, taking the adidas retail experience to a new level. With a size of 3,170m² the adidas Brand Center store is the biggest adidas store worldwide occupying four floors inside the new Sanlitun Village Shopping Center.
Not sure why Gilbert's name wasn't in the first sentence. Anyhow, as you're no doubt aware, he's pictured here with Paul Pi (VP marketing adidas China), Erich Stamminger (adidas president) and Wolfgang Bentheimer (manager, adidas China).

Good to see Gilbert in China having some fun. Y'know, I've never been one to buy something just 'cause a sports star endores it, but I LOVE Gilbert and make an exception in his case. It's Vitamin Water and Adidas for me!
THANKS THANKS GIL for signing again with us. Washington DC area is a big town and we deserve a big sports start like you!
