Attend any Lakers games this season? Post your thoughts/exp. 

Post#1 » by DwnShft2Xcelr8 » Wed Feb 12, 2014 10:10 am

I have only been to one game so far (not sure if I'll attend another this season), and it was the 3rd game of this season back on Nov. 1st vs the San Antonio Spurs.
It sucked because other than the Lakers losing despite being up 15 at one point, Tim Duncan didn't play. That was my chance to see Timmy D live for the very first time. :(

Also, I wanted to add that this was the first ever NBA game I had ever been to where nothing happened at half-time. No short dance performance, no half-court shot attempt by a random fan, nothing. They barely even played music. Some other people in the crowd were complaining loudly about it.

I went last night. Great, high quality basketball. The excitement in the crowd was like prime Shaq/Kobe Bryant days. We got something special out there. Enjoy it, folks.

I went to the Tronto game for Kobe's return. It was my gf's first time at a Laker game and she's become a pretty huge fan. Never seen her more excited. There was a great atmosphere before the game, people were chanting outside in line to get in: the faithful were out in force.

Unfortunately, I didn't realize our seats were next to the USC Band. Not that they were the problem exactly, but obviously some of these people with the band go to a lot of games and for them, it's no big deal. In that section there are only two rows, not the normal mass of people, and this one girl right below us talked through the entire game. And I mean through all 2 hours of it. (Mostly she was talking about how bad Kobe was. Every turnover she would say how he shouldn't've come back. She was a huge hater. This was back when the guys were playing their asses off and it seemed like we had great chemistry.)

Needless to day it was very frustrating. Plus we lost and made Amir Johnson look like the Second Coming.

The hotdog wasn't bad.

Went to the Timberwolves game. It was the one right after Kobe fractured his knee. Going into it, i felt like we were gonna get our asses handed down to us. And i was disappointed to not be able to see kobe play as it's always special. Our seats were behind the basket row F, so about 6 rows from the front. We ended up winning that game and it was very exciting to say the least. Started a huge losing streak after that.
