    Incase anyone was wondering, he told Hilton, "We are going to Legends after the game. You are invited to come with us." That's why Hilton response was “No I’m not (and that’s a fact jack)!"

    That's a really cool story TheTruth.

    CHUCKY FREAKING HAYES!!!

    I got a story about being called on the phone by my season ticket rep to meat her early....for sumpin. That sumpin was courtside seats. But it is not nearly the story you told.

    I used to say if I had my choice of seats it would be basket level mid court, thinking courtside was too close and you couldn't see the game like a scout could. Well that's true, but boy can you see the players play and talk and they DO FREAKING TALK all the time. In college and HS they don't talk like this. They don't call out plays and defensive positions..etc. in the NBA the DO...it is sooooo awesome.

    that said...

    the best thing...TheTruth be told...in THE courtside seats, you can see under the Power Dancer "skirts".

    not quit as good a story as TheTruth, but awesome seats nonetheless.

    I was at the game as well and was screaming out loud Chuck Hayes. You guys kindof looked like you didnt know what to do with the camera stuck on you guys for so long. Chuncking the #1 sign for a while and then i believe pointing to a program at the end. Anyways good story.

    Hey, that was you?!!

    I was up there a couple of sections over from where you were.

    I've been to about 7-8 games so far and they have done that promotion a few times and wondered how they picked theor contestants.

    One question though, do they give you the answer beforehand or anything?

    The other times they have done it while I was there, the pictures were about as impossible to correctly guess as possible. The first time being a pic of JVG playing ball in what looked like his teens or 20's. Of course, with the head covered up, there is NO WAY anyone could guess that correctly without help.

    Anyway, great story. I'm going to have to really start wearing out my Rocket gear to the games for now on. :D

    P.S. Damn, I was too late to get a calendar. That sucked.

    Dude, he was wearing a Nazareth jersey in that picture. All of those pictures have been really easy.

    They didn't give the answer but they said we would get the seats no matter what. Actually, Suzy said to pretend like you didn't know who it was.
