Went to my first Nets game this weekend 

Post#1 » by MoochieNorris » Mon Mar 4, 2019 10:12 pm

biggie bobblehead night on friday. great experience. sat 10-15 rows back in the corner for hella cheap. i think the team is great and atkinson is a great coach but whoever is in charge of branding over there is killing it. it was all 90s bad boy beats, songs and remixes all game long and during the breaks. they blast an odb soundbyte after like every 4th basket....it's just fun af.

my band played this weekend and turns out one of the guys in one of the other bands works at barclays so im going to rondae hollis jefferson bobblehead night (lol) for free next week.
i mean this in the best way possible, but it almost feels minor league. it's a really cool vibe. would def go to 5ish games a year.

I know I've said this millions of times on here but if you can ever get a way to get access passes to the club downstairs in the Barclays, do it. They have a world class buffet and a basketball court down there, it's insane.

Could be wrong, but I get the impression that Jose is in the Philippines.

So round trip plane tickets might be helpful, on top of the game tickets. :P

I love how our little fandom on here has people from more than a few different places. We've got some Aussie Net fans on here too

Yeah, purty cool. I'm not originally from the States either, so you could count me from South America if you like. :P

And WTH... guess I'll put on the hater cap and mention how glorious it is to be rid of Lin. Wonderful dude, miserable fan base. The more vocal ones, anyway.

Nets games are always fun. They've done a good job of making a fan friendly vibe of Barclays.

As they team grows, hopefully the fan base grows just as strong. The playoffs should be fun.

That’s just the first step. Visa, airfare & accomodation are next with Visa as the hardest... :lol:

Yup! It will. Though Visa is the most challenging which I understand to avoid illegal permanent settlers.

I'm always curious, how did you become a Nets fan?

I need to stop making excuses that I live in CT and it takes too long to get to the arena. You guys who are close by in the city are lucky though.

Return to Brooklyn Nets
