Yes, you read that right!  For all you David Beckham fans, he is coming with his Los Angeles Galaxy team to compete in this year’s Pan-Pacific Championships (Source: Honolulu Star Bulletin).  It will be a two day event and will be held at the Aloha Stadium on February 20th and 23rd.
Even if you aren’t a Beckham fan, you can just enjoy watching soccer and will be thrilled at this event.  Since this is a four team tournament, you will also get to see the Houston Dynamo, the Gamba Osaka, and a team from the Hyundai A-League Final Series. I’m glad professional organizations are starting to recognize Hawaii as a place to have their events.  As many of you who live here know, we don’t get many events held here.  There aren’t that many big time concerts, almost no sporting events except for the Pro Bowl…you get the picture.  But now, it seems that the tides have turned.  In fact, the UFC is planning to have one of their events in 2008 held at the Aloha Stadium.  This will finally get Hawaii out there and show that we are also a good place to have events.
If you want tickets to this event, they will go on sale next month.  Until then, go to www.PPChampionship.net for the most current information.
