Beyonce Attends Groundbreaking of Barclay’s Bank in Brooklyn
Beyonce supported hubby Jay-Z at the Barclays Center Groundbreaking Ceremony this Thursday (March 12th) at the Atlantic Yards in New York.
Jay-Z joined politicians and officials for the groundbreaking ceremony for the Barclays Center, it will eventually be the new home of the New Jersey Nets.
“What I stand here and represent is hope for Brooklyn, New York City. I’m a son of Brooklyn, I’m from Marcy projects,” Jay said. “I think about growing up in Brooklyn in the Marcy projects and shooting jump shots, thinking I can make it to the NBA. Now I stand here as an owner of a team that’s coming back to Brooklyn. The pride in that, and bringing that dream so much closer for people, brings me so much pride I get a little nervous about it. But I’m very happy, very excited about this day. And we did it again, Brooklyn — shout-out to [Notorious] B.I.G.”
If you aren’t playing for the NBA – then owning the team is a great alternative (lol).
