    If you don't drink at least 8 of those things during game 6, I'll kill you.

    In a figurative sense, naturally.

    I actually had a stupid superstition going on for game 6-

    I wore the same red shirt for games 1, 2, 3, and 4- and the same Rockets hat. After our two losses in Utah I washed the red shirt (to hopefully wash away any bad luck) and wore the shirt for the W last night in game 5. Hopefully it'll work for game 6 (not washing the shirt)

    I guess here's mine:

    Game 1 - (at work, missed the ending because of a 911 call)

    Game 2 - (at work, missed the ending because of a 911 call)

    Game 3 - (Watched it at home on my new 42 inch LCD tv)

    Game 4 - (Watched it at home on my new 42 inch LCD tv)

    Game 5
    - (at work, missed the ending because of a 911 call)

    Game 6
    ....good news. I'm working, now someone has to call 911 during the 2nd half.

    Hmm, I had an almost exact opposite thing going. I watched games 1 and 2 through my uncle's slingbox (I don't have a TV at my apartment). I missed game 3. And for game 4, the slingbox cut out at half-time, and I had to listen to Jazz announcers the rest of the game (yeah that horrible 3rd quarter) since I live in L.A. I made sure the slingbox was working for game 5, and I watched the last 3 quarters (missed the 1st quarter due to work). If the slingbox isn't working for game 6 . . . I'll be taking the one hour drive through traffic to fix that slingbox and make sure I watch it. :D

    Game 4: Karla's House - L
    Game 5: Toyota Center - W
    Game 6: Short-shorts Statue - ?

    I gave my wife's ticket to my friend from San Fran last night. He's a big Golden State fan. We won because of his mojo. This has nothing to do with Zimas.

    PS- My wife was PISSED

    I'm not afraid to admit it either! I'm secure in my sexuality.

    Yes, they do. They are 5x better than the original Zima too, but the previous forumula was 10x better than original (they *JUST* launched new forumula 4/1/07).

    Game 1 - Me on the chair with my roommate and his gf on the couch
    Game 2 - Me on the chair with my roommate and his gf on the couch
    Game 3 - Big screen at friends apartment
    Game 4 - Different house in different city
    Game 5:
    1st Half - Me on the couch and roommate on the chair
    2nd Half - Me on the chair with my roommate and his gf on the couch

    Either way, I'm not breaking that formula for Thursday for anything.
