After 10 years out of town, I'm back in Houston on vacation. On top of the "to do" liste: going to a Rockets game. The warriors game seems the best solution. From here on, I need a few advises from the BBS: 1/ where to sit? Good seats for up to 50$. Section? Row? 2/ Where to buy the tix? 3/ How to get to the TC and where to parc? This will be my only second Rockets (or NBA) game and I don't know when (or if) I'll be able to go see one ever again, so I really want to make the most out of it.
http://www.toyotacentertix.com/seating/rockets.html (seating chart and prices) 1) 50 dollar seats you can get on the lower deck behind the baskets. Try and get section 125, 102, 112, or 115 50$ seats cause those are virtually unimpeded view seats while all other 50$ sections you have to look through a backboard for some of the parts of the court. 2) You can buy tickets online, and at the game. I don't think 50$ tickets are THAT popular. So you will be able to relatively choose where you want to sit I'm sure. I might ask first just in case. 3) I'd mapquest the Toyota Center. Directions would depend on where you are. Parking isn't hard to find. Bring 5-10 dollars and there is usually a guy with a lot somewhere. Show up early though.
