It's opening night - that alone should ensure a rockin' and rowdy Toyota Center. But this evening also comes with a twist: For the first time in franchise history, the Rockets will be sporting their red jerseys at home.
It's all part of the club's "Get Red!" campaign, which means the team is asking you to do your part as well. All fans are encouraged to wear their finest red attire and for those willing to go the extra mile, here's some additional motivation: An official from the Guinness Book of World Records will be on hand as the Rockets try to set a new mark for having the most red-faced (due to painting, of course) fans gathered at one event.

Didn't the Rockets wear the road (red) uniforms at home once last season? I'm thinking it was maybe in the pre-season - if so, I guess that doesn't count.

WOW! THAT is inspiration for you, good sirs.
In honor of this magnanimous goal, I'm totally gonna see if I can set the world record for having the most toenail clippings jammed up my nose. Who wants to be my witness?
.. And did R. Kelly write a song about that? He really needs to hire Paul Reubens as a backup singer.

I hate that slogan. Maybe if it was "Get Rid!(of Head)" or just "Get Head!", or "Seriously, Tits."...
...I would be alot more excited...
..but "Get Red!" just sounds insanely idiotic and I bet every other team with their fancy slogans is laughing their asses off at how dumb we are for coming up with something so terrible. I'll paint my face red though in support of this adventure.....(with the blood of whoever made the decision to accept this as our catchy new phrase).
