2A CLOSEUP - BOOMER
Boomer's head travelling from tall player's shoes all the way up to tall player's head.
BOOMER (V.O.) Hmm, basketball. Not a sport dogs are good at.
Boomer continues around to the back entrance where a crowd -- mostly kids -- are gathered waiting to get autographs of the Bucketeers. After a beat, a bus pulls into the parking lot. A sign on the side of the bus reads, "THE BUCKETEERS." The crowd rushes to the door of the bus as the players exit in street clothes and carrying their travelling cases. Everyone's attention moves to MEADOWLARK as he exits.

3 VARIOUS SHOTS - KIDS' FACES
It's possible that only Santa Claus can elicit the same kind of reaction and joy from kids that Meadowlark can. He freely signs autographs and AD-LIBS with the crowd, all of whom are excited about seeing him later that afternoon.

4 BACK TO SHOT
Boomer is caught in the maze of feet crowded around Meadowlark. Everyone is crowded so close to Meadowlark that no one notices that Meadowlark's wallet slips out of his jacket to the ground.
