At the rally, a proclamation from Mayor Bill White will be made encouraging fans all over the Houston area to wear red on Wednesday, October 29 in support of the Houston Rockets season opener against the Memphis Grizzlies.

    * Get Red Rally at City Hall will feature free Papa John’s pizza and beverages from Gatorade, while supplies last.
    * Former Rockets great Clyde Drexler will make an appearance. Houston Rockets General Manager Daryl Morey and CEO Tad Brown will address the crowd. Mayor Pro Tem Adrian Garcia will announce the ‘Houston Rockets Get Red Day’ proclamation and Houston City Council members will be in attendance.
    * Clutch the Bear, Rockets Power Dancers and Launch Crew will perform, along with a live DJ providing entertainment. Fans can test their skills on the inflatable Pop-A-Shot and win Rockets prizes throughout the event.
    * A special ticket offer for Houston Rockets Opening Night will be available to Rally Attendees only!

    Want everyone to wear red? Give away red shirts at the door. That is the best way to make sure that everyone wears a certain color.

    That is weird. It worked for the Golden State Warriors. I guess we have too many cooperate suits to win over.

    All I see are some bandwagon Rockets corporate losers who decided to check out the hottest ticket in town.

    No participation from bandwagoners results in Toyota Center and the Rockets looking crappy on TV.

    I'll be there at City Hall. Look out for me in my Rockets shooting shirt. I'll be there at 11:45. Me and the White man are tight.
