Adam 'Ad-Rock' Horovitz and Michael 'Mike D' Diamond from Beastie Boys together with Mike Tyson, 1987

Ad-Rock is wearing a 1980 Appalachian State Basketball Camp t-shirt

How the hell did you come across this?

We found an exception to the school of thought that any publicity is good publicity.

How is it bad publicity seeing someone from a group that's sold 50 million albums and toured world wide wearing an App State shirt? I'm not saying this picture alone will reach new levels of publicity, but how is it not good anytime you see App State anywhere?

I run a website so I'm online ALL day and night searching and looking for cool things to post and came across this gem on http://www.vintag.es/2017/12/21-cool-ph ... imate.html

Great pic, thanks for posting. I went to that camp back in high school in 78 or 79. It was advertised as Coach Cremins' BBALL camp, but Coach Kevin Cantwell ran it. Good basketball back then at App. I think they won the SOCON back in 79. Dang I am getting old. Good old times.

I remember Kevin Balling, my video production professor at App in the mid 90s, saying that he met the beastie boys at App b-ball camp when he was younger. He was also originally a New Yorker.
