    Because people don't seem to really grasp that other cities are wayyyy more consolidated then Houston. Houston is so spread out and you got to drive too much, it's just way easier to go home and watch in high def.

    If it wasn't such a drive I'd attend more games. Even the summit location was much better then going into downtown. But that strains eastside.. Houston covers just too much area.

    Slow start? The crowd didn't just show up at the end of the 3rd.

    What did you expect? Houston fans are the worst.

    There’s free T-shirts on the seats for playoffs atmosphere and most fans refuse to put on the shirt, even when they’re put on the big screen telling fans put the shirt on.

    lol I was at that game and I was the only one wearing the shirt in my whole section pretty much. All I can do is control myself though. I don't dig all the fan hating honestly.

    If Clutchfans was that about that life then they could go to the games and put on the shirts. That's what I did for the san antonio game.

    Our home crowd has always been crappy. It’s really embarrassing

    Need more strippers or just move people from upper deck to the lower deck.

    It's embarrassing to see all those empty seats in the front rows on a National TV game

    Seats will fill up later into the season, and in the playoffs we'll have a full house. It's alright.

    Rockets should do what the Mavs do and just give away tickets to Create a good home environment.

    It got loud during the 4th quarter. I’m a teacher so I don’t scream until the 4th so I still have a voice the next day lol.

    Should be able to walk up to the ticket window on game day & get them cheaply. (Cheap by playoff standards)

    I kid, I kid. ;)
