Any news on the Rowdies tryouts today?

I think there was like 60 people there. I made it this way, I had two posters one said It's Time Houston Rockets 2007-2008 and my other poster said S.A. Antonio Spurs are #1. I started screaming it's time, go rockets yah!!!!! Then I put down my rockets poster and showed the spurs one saying the spurs suck what's up Luther Head your the man ect... Then I end up ripping the spurs poster crumbling it up and then I dunked the crumbled up spurs poster into the basketball rim. Then I tried to scream louder which I think I did than the 30 seconds ended. I ended up making The rowdies I was so excited!

 

I just got a call from my friend and he said that his buddy won the last set of tickets during the try outs today. He ain't going to all the games so me and my friend will be part of the Red Rowdies in some games this season! I can't wait.

 

hate to break it to you, but you won't be able to swap tickets ...they're left at will call and require an ID to pickup. If he gets caught trying to swap tickets, he could get disqualified for the season. The idea is that Rowdy fans are the most dedicated and comit to the whole season. Sorry, dude.

 

Sweet. I remember your routine. The dunk was great and got everybody pumped up. Congrats.

I was the one that had Spurs written across my bootay.

 

Here's the first of many.

I won't get to all of them until tomorrow, but I'll post them to my Flickr stream as they come in...

Gee, who were those two guys in the video.

 

is adelman paying for the tix like van gundy did last year? and is mcgrady pitching in as well?

 

I don't know, but I've seen the second guy a lot a Toyota Center. It seems like every time I goto a game I see him.

 

No. They are sponsored by Adidas.

thats pretty sweet....i wonder who wrote this up on wikipedia

 

I wish I could be a rowdy... Want one of those t-shirts.

 

OrangeRowdy did.

I still can't believe only 60 people showed up

 

it sounds like mcgrady made a phone call to addidas to pay the bill.

 

It says on the wiki page: "Van Gundy even offered to pay the fans' season tickets."

So did Gundy pay or did he not pay? If he did, how many fans' season tickets were paid by him? Was he later reimbursed by the Rockets organization?

 

That's probably cause they are in section 114.


I think one is busy playing Xbox right now.
