    Hey tim how was it last year? Do you expect a huge crowd? Are you able to bring basketball for autographs and cameras? Let me know, thanks.

    Hey, why don't you just call the ticket representative? You are apparently spending enough money in the hierarchy of ticket classes to warrant the appreciation.

    Watch out for those Stevie Franchise elbows during the video games, have fun. Ask Steve about how he enjoyed the Superbowl before you play the videogames:) He likes people who trash talk, its apart of the game.

    I am lost. What are you talking about again?:confused:

    The Rockets appreciate your "key support" of the franchise with your 12 games worth of money, now go play your videogames. While those who happened to just invest several 6-packs think about why we just did not reach for the 12 pack and all of its perks.

    And to think ... other teams that do this limit it to full season ticket holders ONLY.

    Probably a better idea if you are going to invite 12 pack folks instead of folks who purchase two 6-packs. Does that not add up to 12 no matter how you slice it?

    Maybe other teams have their arenas sold out with season tickets.

    Just got back a little a while ago. Pretty fun. Very crowded.

    Played a shooting game with Mark Jackson. I came in second with 35 points and Mark Jackson came in first with 65 points. Really wasn't fair though damnit. His arms were so long he was practically laying the ball in the hoop.

    Pike was having fun with his kids. I didnt talk to him but he seemed very very nice and down to earth.

    Saw Cuttino playing with some little kids and it seemed like he was having a good time.

    Also saw Cuttino playing a game with a lot of people gather around him. I couldnt really see everything because there was a large crowd. Then all of sudden up pops this 7'6" Chinese guy from the middle of the pack! He was sitting and not everyone in the back knew Yao was in that area as well. The guy is FREAKIN HUGE! I felt like a little hobbit next to him.

    Francis was playing a long range basketball shooting game. He was pretty much kicking everyone's ass and was having a good time I think.

    Also saw Weatherspoon and Stuttering Cooper.

    I got the chance to go to Dave and Busters. Here are my thoughts.

    Positive Things:

    It was very cool of the rockets to have this for season ticket holders. They gave out shirts, video game cards, food, and had drawings for prizes. The bench players were very easy to get to and they were friendly. The bench players signed autographs and were down to earth (Mo,Eric,Scott,Cato,etc...). I think all of the fans had a good time.

    Negative things:

    Steve, Cat,and Yao came off very snobbish and seemed as they didn't want to talk to anyone or shake hands with the fans. It was awsome to be that close to them but they really seemed like they did not want to be there. The biggest negative is that they only allowed the first "100" people get there autographs. These passes were given out almost secretly. That was not cool. I think those guys could sign autographs for an hour. I know I give them a lot more of my time every night that I watch them play.

    All in All it was really cool of the Rockets to do this for those who spend a lot of hard earned cash on their organization.

    Of course that is your opinion and you are fully entitled to it. I myself thought all three of them were having a pretty good time from the looks on their faces.
