FOLLOWING their historic back-to-back championship win in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) Governors’ Cup, the Barangay Ginebra San Miguel Gin Kings will be holding a thanksgiving party for their die-hard fans today at the FilOil Flying V Center in San Juan City.

Gates will open at 11 a.m. However in the interest of safety, the company discourages pregnant women, elderly, persons with disability from attending. Children below 12 years old will be admitted if accompanied by parents or legal guardians.

“This is going to be our second celebration and this one is for our fans. This is our way of giving back to them. They’re the ones who bring life to our team and we’re not going to be here right now if not for them,” said Ginebra head coach Tim Cone.

“Everyone knows that we have the best fans in the league and we want to do everything we can to make them happy. The team and I are looking forward to spending time with everyone,” said Mark Caguioa.

During a recent victory party at San Miguel Corp. headquarters in Mandaluyong City, SMC President and COO Ramon S. Ang also acknowledged the Barangay Ginebra San Miguel fans for their continued support to the team. “We would like to thank all the Ginebra fans. You are an inspiration to us. And if not for you we will not be here,” said Mr. Ang.
