First Blazer Game

Getting ready to go, jump shot's are ready.
All fan'd out.
Where'd the lead go- we're getting serious now.
Nate and I attended his first ever Blazer game on Wednsdsay, thanks to a generous invite from a school friend and his mom. We had GREAT seats about 10 rows off the court just right of center. It was quite the way to see your first game, let me tell you. It was Blazers vs Pistons. For the first 3 quarters the blazers dominated; up 20 points and the end of the third quarter. It was a great place to be. But then the Blazers relaxed and the Pistons caught up within 2 points. The great part about the Blazers's losing their lead was the energy that whirlled up for the last, very long 2 minutes. The entire Rose Garden was on their feet and Nate was on his chair. Totally worth it. That kind of energy was fun to see him experience. They squeaked out a win - 87-81. $15 Subway sandwiches, giant popcorn, a long, late night. Totally worth it.
One side not, Ken Griffey Jr. was sitting a few rows in front of us. Nate took a picture of the back of him at half time.
