A plea to everybody going to games at Toyota Center

Quick question.. how much are tickets to the home games now? And where are you sitting?

 

So someone should get the crowd to go completely silent during thunder free throws only to yell in unison right before release. I think that would be more effective than constant yelling. Can't be that hard right?

 

wow. never thought of that!

 

Can somebody record the intro.

 

Ooooooohhhhhhh!!!

 

STRAYAAAAAA

 

"Stepping up to the line is Kevin Durant shooting 2 looouuud FREEEE THROWWSS!"

 

Most of the best seats are corporate and explains why they have so many empty seats when they announce a full house because sold seats are considered full even when those ticket holders don't even show up. Kind of sad that even when you get free corporate tickets, some fans still don't show up.

 

Not even sure if we sold out...

 

Game 3 is sold out. They mentioned it during the Rockets viewing party.


Also, for those who haven't seen it yet, they put a bad ass mural at the front entrance.

 

I don't know why they keep saying it's sold out, there's a lot of tickets still on here for sale:

As far the lower level, I feel like the lower level outside of the club is usually pretty full, even during the regular season. The club usually only gets full during big games and the 2nd and 3rd qtr. Our season tickets are in East Club Section C121 and there are many times where when the game tips we have an entire row to ourselves, but inevitably it fills up by the end of the first qtr.

The tons of amenities that you get with the club level are awesome, but the downside is the empty seats at times. Most arenas (Staples, American Airlines Center, etc) put their club level on the second tier so it's not as noticeable at those locations. But at Toyota they chose to make the club the seats with the best locations for games and concerts.

Having said all of that, if prior playoffs are any indication the club as well as the rest of the arena will be full, loud and a great atmosphere.

 

I think what will make the biggest difference is this game not having the large amount of corporate seats like regular season games have.

A big gripe fans have is during the regular season the lower bowl seats, typically courtside, are alot of times corporate seats. Meaning, companies in Houston buy these up and give these to their clients, employees, etc. as a gift, or to encourage them to do business with them. So those type of attendees probably dont have much enthusiasm to get there real early and go crazy.

During the playoffs however, I dont think you will see as much of that. Especially on a Saturday game. My guess is it will look much more sold out than most "sold out" regular season games, and the fans should be plenty loud.

 

I agree with this. I will also be there tomorrow screaming my head off.


Are they giving everyone free T-Shirts tomorrow?

 

No idea, but if I had to guess, I'd bet that it's going to be a "Red out"

 

As a Red Rowdy, I support this.

 

To everyone going to the game.. Boo Perkins and get loud hopefully on every possession and show OKC we got better fans. Please be there on time and spread that around we don't want a bad embarrassment especially on National TV if lower bowl seats were to be empty during start of game... Wear RED GEAR and what we could do is be SILENT ON THUNDER FTs AND YELL WHEN THEY RELEASE WOULD BE GREAT!! BOO PERKINS EVERYTIME!!!!!!!

 

It's frustrating how the REAL FANS and red rowdies or CLUTCHFANS users should be getting those LOWER bowl seats..not dumb corporates.

 

Got you guys hooked up,
