    It was off the hook...no doubt...I paid 35 bucks for my ticket off e-bay, and they were in the upper deck, at midcourt...not bad right? It gets better...My cousins from Sugarland were at the game (Their dad is loaded) and they had floor seats...So me and the guy I went with got their ticket stubs (VIP Floor Seats) and we get onto the floor during the second quarter... (We scoped out the place during the first quarter from the upper deck seats) We sat one row behind courtside! No Joke...we were right behind Jose Lima and Scar Face. I got Scar Face's autograph during halftime, and right before the 3rd quarter, Allen Iverson comes out and gives Scar Face an autographed pair of shoes...it gets better...we sat behind them the whole 2nd half, and after the game, I got Jose Lima's autograph, and Glen Rice's autograph (Glen was getting interviewed by Gene Peterson). Eddie Griffin came out to get interviewed, but he was a punk...no autographs, and my friend asked him for his jersey, and he said "I have to wear it in the next game"...such BS< but whatever, I also said hey to Lisa Malosky and Craig Seager (sp?) from TNT...it was awesome...35 bucks for my best Rockets experience.:p

    Glad you enjoyed it becareful if you get caught down their your escorted out by a policeman who will be happy to give you his autograph and will demand yours.:D

    Its easy to sit in the upper prom but courtside and anywhere closer is risky.
