BJ Penn @ Blue Hawaii Surf Waikele 2007

Why you might ask am I posting BJ Penn up from back in 2007 here on the Gallery page. Well long before all the other shops were having signings with BJ Penn, RVCA x Blue Hawaii were bringing together BJ and his loyal fans together. Some times there may have been only 12 people in attendance for a signing, but BJ would always be there and happily so. Then the Matt Hughes vs BJ Penn 2 fight took place and the rest was history. Now whenever BJ does a signing there's hundreds and hundreds of people lining up to meet this Hawaiian hero. I have never seen an iconic figure so humble and always appreciative of the fans that he has. BJ is truly an artisan when it comes to his craft of MMA and an inspiration to the people of Hawaii.
