It includes nachos shaped like the number one and rose-shaped cake pops. There will even be a cocktail and a cookie shaped like Rose's jersey. This shows how much the Bulls and fans care about him.
Rose was the number one pick in the 2008 draft. He is one of only two players to be the first pick for the Bulls. He spent the first eight years of his career with the team. In his second season, he won Rookie of the Year. Two years later, he became the youngest player ever to win MVP. He was just 22 years old.
During his MVP season, the Bulls had a great year. They won 62 games. This is tied for the third-most wins in a single season for the Bulls.
