“G’day Mate!” Patty Mills Greets Fans at Local BBVA Signing

Related Topics: Patty Mills, BBVA Compass

Nearby a teller’s desk at a local BBVA Compass bank, Patty Mills sips from a bottle of Topo Chico seated at a table brandished with the company’s logo — a stack of photographs bearing his likeliness are piled near an array of various Sharpies. A BBVA employee opens the bank’s doors, and fans — most waiting several hours to meet the Spurs reserve — begin filing in. The reactions are varied: some express their adoration of his accent, others produce strange memorabilia for the Australian native to sign (one woman brought a boomerang; another a gigantic cardboard cut-out of his head).
