L.A. Lakers' Championship Ring Ceremony!

[Ab-Titchaz]

One by one, Lakers players and coaches walked toward center court Tuesday night to receive their 2008-09 championship keepsake from David Stern and Lakers executive vice president Jeanie Buss.



Not the Larry O'Brien trophy — that stays with the owner Jerry Buss and the team. Not the franchise's 15th championship banner — that was unveiled (ever so slowly) in the rafters for the fans. And not even a free Jack in the Box coupon — those also went home with the hungry Lakers' faithful.


No, for the players, there was something even more coveted than a sloppy 99-cent taco — the bling, baby.
