Kobe Bryant has a lot of fans all over the world and they want to see the final games of his career
After the announcement on Sunday, every game that Kobe Bryant plays for the Lakers the rest of the season is part of his farewell tour. After 20 years, Bryant has decided to call it a career, making a lot of his fans out there pretty sad.
Now, of course, if you are a huge fan of Kobe, then you definitely want to see one of these games that he plays the rest of the way, seeing as it might be the last opportunity that you will get. We must also remember that not only does Bryant have a pretty big following here in the United States, but he has fans all over the world. It’s pretty much common knowledge that Bryant has a pretty large fan base overseas, especially in Europe.
Well, on Tuesday night as the Lakers take on the Sixers, we got some good proof of that. These guys apparently came all the way from Italy to watch Bryant wrap it up and call it a career.

Hey, now, that’s dedication right there. Also, if the sign is indeed true, that could be some pretty poor planning by quitting your jobs and not having a place to stay here in the US, but pretty awesome nonetheless.
