Sparse crowd. A few entire sections in the upper bowl had less than 10 people. One had 2 people that I counted. Everyone could have easily fit in the lower bowl.
Herb wearing a jacket and tie.
Juniorgee was there at the start. I wonder if some fans had to call their parole officer after that.
An Energee girl (Stacey) was profiled on the Jumbotron in the 2nd half. One of the prettier girls.
Bango messed up the skit where he was going to tie a bungy to a fake Clippers fan's tricycle in a contest vs. a little girl so that the little girl could win.
Halftime show was Special Olympics basketball. #22 on one of those teams couldn't defend either
Andrea Williams had a "Beat LA" shirt on. Somehow I think it was never meant for the Clippers.
One of the hooptroop guys introduced the extreme fan of the game. Terrible.
Streetlife was there.
Anything else?

I saw on the broadcast a blurb of Penny Marshall sitting in the crowd, but then highlights from the game tonight......she wasn't there, was she? It was hard to tell if that was old footage from the Bucks Clippers game in LA earlier in the year.
Then again since Henry Winkler was in town two weeks ago at grand avenue, anything is possible.

Doug Melvin was at the game. I shook his hand as he was walking to the Courtside Club at halftime. He wasn't too personable, just said that he was excited about the season.

she actually was there sitting courtside. They introduced her sometime in the 4th quarter.

Good news, Streetlife used their time off to get much worse playing their version of pop tunes. At least the Bucks brought out the t-shirt gatling gun. And Gadzuric dominated the half-time game with his incredible display of agility.

Anyone see me behind J-Mac's left ear during the post game show making faces? I'm easily amused.
Watching the Bucks is just like watching an 80's scary movie. I know what is going to happen (we blow it) and when it's going to happen (3 min left,) yet I just can't turn away. And somehow I'll miss it when its over. I wasn't alone... out of the the dismal crowd that attended the game (it was cold as all heck,) barely anyone left until 18 seconds left. I was stunned that others just didn't want to believe we were going to loose, just like I didn't want to.
Those were the "real" fans there tonight. Even when we booed, it was just because Voskul was playing like he had 5 left feet and his head was up his a** on both sides of the court for that 1 min stretch. The game was still fun to watch overall.

Were you wearing a tie?
I remember seeing you chilling behind them and then an usher seemed to give you the boot.

That was me. They gave me the boot, but not before I was on the entire segment. lol. I signed, "I love you" to my wife and she actually saw it - first post game show she ever watched and there I am.

I turned the game on in the 4th quarter and the sound was messed up. There was maybe one or two microphones on and they only picked up an occasional dribble or shoe noise. Did anyone else have that problem?
