Break out your Kobe Bryant jerseys, because Orange County just voted to make August 24th Kobe Bryant Day.
According to CBS LA, Orange County Board Chairwoman Michelle Steele referred to Kobe as a "treasured member of our community" and credited him with inspiring "so many men and women to pursue their dreams and never give up." Kobe Bryant and his family lived in Newport Beach until his fatal helicopter crash on January 26th.
The board settled on August 24th as a reflection of his two jersey numbers, 8 and 24.
