Blkbrd671 · Post #1 » by **Blkbrd671** » Mon Jul 7, 2014 11:53 pm

What up RealGM fam, i'm going to be in the Grand Rapids area for the next 2 weeks and was wondering if anyone knows of any open practices for the Drive or Pistons. I don't get a chance to see much of our boys in person, so i'm pretty much looking for anything.

Pistons always have an open practice prior to the start of the season. September I believe.

Auburn Hills is a solid 2 hour drive from GR. Not exactly a quick stopover while in west MI.

Thanks for posting that. I never really thought about a tour, but that would be fun for my next visit.

As long as there are malls nearby for my woman and sisters to shop at, there's no mountain i can't climb.
