The Great Vasquez

By: Kufere Laing
As I sat down to enjoy my lunch at the University of Maryland's Stamp's Student Union, a tall man with a buzz cut went through my vision. I quickly looked up and somewhat shouted, "is that Greivis Vasquez?". Everyone at the table turned and looked up, and much to our surprise, it was the University of Maryland superstar guard, Greivis Vasquez. At the urging of Eric, we got up and asked Vasquez for a picture and despite being ready to eat his lunch, Vasquez obliged to take not one, but three pictures. Vasquez is known for his shouting matches with the crowd, just as much as he is known for his flashy passes and clutch performances for the Maryland Terps and due to this, he is often characterized as a brat. Well, here's another case of not being able to judge a book by its cover. 
--Note: Vasquez had an ice pack on his left ankle, there may be a story here. If there is, you heard it first at Garbage Time. To the left is the picture taken with a camera phone, sorry for the blurriness. Follow us on Twitter-www.twitter.com/garbagetime3
