Ray Allen's time at the University of Connecticut was memorable for a number of reasons, and it looks like he still has some affection for the place. Allen is in his native Connecticut this week, and he's giving away old pairs of his basketball shoes to lucky fans.

One catch -- he's hiding the shoes in the greater Hartford area:

I'm doing some closet cleaning this morning and I have a lot of old shoes to give away. Be on the look out this week if you live in the Hartford area. A photo posted by Ray Allen (@rayn34) on Jun 30, 2015 at 6:25am PDT

If you're familiar with Hartford and really, really want a pair of Allen's sneakers -- well, you know where to look.
