The city of Boulder is drenched in tie-dye shirts this weekend as the beloved band Dead & Company visits for a pair of shows.
Friday’s opening concert saw thousands pack the University of Colorado’s Folsom Field, and it was no surprise when college basketball legend and NBA Hall of Famer Bill Walton was spotted (rather easily, assumedly) amongst the Deadheads. Walton has long been one of the band’s most famous fans and his unique personality certainly fits in with the Dead & Co. crowd.
While Walton’s color commentary on the Pac-12 Network may not be for everyone, it’s hard not to ultimately love the 7-footer. Plus, his passion for Boulder should make him a favorite amongst CU fans.
Because it isn't a Dead & Co. concert in #Boulder without Bill Walton. Also, you think they'd put the 7-foot guy a few rows back… (pic via @CliffordGrassm1) pic.twitter.com/a4pAHTbL31
