    Official announced paid attendance was always 16,611 dating back at least to 1986. then it jumped down to the 285 number. It's possible they forgot to talk include the seats that may have been omitted when they put the extra press box rows in for the Finals, I always wondered why that was.

    LAME = not knowing the history of the franchise.

    tinman take him down, now!

    It was 16,611 for years (during most of the sellout streak)

    Yea, I know... but somewhere in between 96 and 99, it was changed (officially) to always be listed as 16,285.

    Look up every sellout during the "francis-era", and you'll see that number. Also, I just threw-up a little in my mouth when I said "francis-era".

    The Rockets' home seating jumped by what effort? (I tho't to the 16661, but regardless, the capacity increased because______________.)

    Defining the "amount" of life one has as a percent seems a pretty good indication that you have 0.0% of life.
