Rockets seeking opinions on Game Times (7:00pm vs. 7:30pm)

same for me

 

7:30 works better for me.

Often, I don't even get out of work til, oh, 6ish. Factor in drive time to run home. Then I gotta change out of my work clothes & into my Rockets jersey. Not to mention I'd like to grab a bite to eat BEFORE going to the game. Then I gotta drive to the TC, find a place to park, walk to the actual TC, find my seat (after my special lady visits the indoor facilities).

Not too much time left after all that before opening tipoff.

HOWEVER, if I'm NOT attending the game, 7:00's just fine

 

i'd prefer 7:00

 

Yeah me too.

 

7:30. i'd actually prefer 8 before 7.

 

Clutch,

can we get a poll on this thread please?

 

agreed.

 

i prefer 7

 

7pm FTW

 

7:00 PM would be better for me and my family. I have kids that I have to get to bed after the game.

 

1st post.

I'm probably not who the Rockets are worried about with this decision. I live about 2 hours from Houston, and make 4-6 games per year. At least a couple of those are weeknight games. That would be very difficult if the games were moved to 7:00. (But I do occasionally still go to Astros games on weeknights.)

 

i prefer 730pm. At first 7pm seemed cool, but i may be working mornings starting next month, in which i may not get out till like 6pm, so 730pm would be great for me.

 

some people have to go home regardless to just clear their minds, grab a beer, change, cool down, and then get pumped up, 7:30 is better, however i think the best way to get the seats filled is by lowering the ticket prices, unlike dallas..etc., true rocket fans can't usually purchsae the good seats, that is why we got a bunch of rich people who think they r at a restaurant talking on the cell phone rather than cheering on the team.....god that makes me mad

 

7:30 definitely. The more time to get there the better it is.

 

7pm, no doubt

 

7:00 PM, I would also like more time afterwards. Though, those west coast games are BRUTAL, 9:30 start, I remember watching the Warriors game, I slept at 11(I have school + I was tired + the Rockets were sucking), I woke up like 75 minutes later and the game was still in regulation. At least, however, I got to see Luther's GT 3 and OT.

 

I do not go as often as many others here but I would prefer a 7:05 PM start. The 7:35 start depresses me when I visit and when I watch it on TV - I just can't exlain it.

On the same note, if voted President, I would institute a 7-hour work thereby giving most people an extra hour of sleep in the morning.

Cheers.

 

I prefer the 7:05 start time. I need all the sleep I can get.

 

7:00 I like to get home.

What I would really like is more weekend games.

BTW, I'm a season ticket holder, though I think I'm going to drop them this year.

 

This weak draft has really billowed our sails with a raging cross current of wind and bluster.
