Inquring about watching a game live... 

Post#1 » by sadnars » Thu Oct 1, 2009 4:06 am

Nothing newsworthy,

Has anyone watched a raptor game while seated an ENDZONE? I usually get balcony prime tickets. However, I just bought raptors tickets today against the Orlando Magic on Nov 1. Seats are ENDZONE sec 101... I was just wondering if anyone has ever had these seats and how was the view?

Thanks for your help...

P.s. anyone else going to that game?

It's really nice there. My dad had season tickets there when I was younger and he would take me at least once a week. Loved those seats.

I'll be there, but I'll be in the back hahaha.

This is a much greater offense than the OP. That guy just wants an opinion from fellow fans. You're just needlessly spamming. On purpose. I wonder how many of your other 25 posts are this bad...

Ah, Thanks. I wonder which team will be coming out of those doors. Every year though, the home team seems to come out through the left doors.

they should have certain word filters for ball boys..IBTL being one of them.

anyways, I've never sat at the endzone..I don't think the view's too great for the other end of the court..and what happens when you sit behind the shot clock??

I am going to this game. I'm not a fan of baseline seats, I rather get balcony prime. It is easier to see all the action I find.

The only person to talk **** to him so far is you.

On topic, I've sat endzone only once - and Lebron dropped 50 on us so I won't be sitting there again :lol:

I sit in the end zone all the time. Pros...
- the value is amazing relative to the sidelines.
- view is good, especially when you're close. You're closer to the action under/around the net than you can be on the sidelines. You'll be amazed at what you see and hear (i grew an appreciation for Rasho after seeing him for a season direct everyone else.....maybe expected a little on defense, but you saw him do it for offensive plays as well).
- always nice to change it up and see the game from differnet angles. Sitting in the same seat is not nearly as nice.

Cons
- you really only get to see half the game....the half that occurs at your end. When its at the other end, its very far away. Its a fair trade-off for me relative to the extra 100+ per tickiet you have to pay for the same seat on the sidelines
- if you're directly behind the net it can block your view. Try to be somewhat off angle to it, and or close enough that it doesn`t matter.

btw - that`s going to be a great game. I can`t wait to see it.
