Event Blazer game suite, sky box or viewing party ideas

[SlyPokerDog]

In a different thread some of you are talking about getting a suite or skybox for a different game this season. I have a couple of questions for all of you.

What's more important, price or quality of opponent?

There are bigger suites and sky boxes, I believe the sky boxes can be combined to hold up to 100 people. Do you guys want this to be forum members only or do you want the option to bring a guest?

There are some forum members that live here in the Portland area but don't bother to ever participate in any forum events. How do we get you guys involved? @MickZagger @Sinobas @BigGameDamian @BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94 @blue32 @blue9 @Natebishop3 @barfo plus a few others I can't think of.

Would a viewing party at a local bar during an away game be better?

If we can get the 100 person 300 level sky box would you guys be interested in splitting it with the Rip City Morning guys? (Just thinking out loud of a way to get someone to underwrite part of the costs.)

For me being able to share these with my son is part of the joy...He loved the last one and he's my driver for long trips. I don't mind paying 2 people's share to have him there

 

[Strenuus]

I think Price is more important to me, because with the rabid fandom, I think any opponent is a good opponent.

If it can hold up to 100 people? Dang, that's a lot of people. Personally, I'd want it to be a tinier group than that. 40, maybe?

 

[Orion Bailey]

Id rather see a win than gert slaughter by a top tier team personally. Bring on the Lakers or the Sixers or something. Great ideas though SLy!

 

[BBert]

I don't care about the opponent. The company is more important and so is the view. If I can't see the court I probably won't drive up. The minor difference in cost is not a factor for me.

100 people? Really? Since most would be strangers, in what way is that better than buying a random ticket for a random seat?

 

[Orion Bailey]

This is a list of the remaining home schedule. A few games pop out to me as potential...

March 12, 26
April 2, 9

All Saturday nights.

Then there is this since it seems Thursday might be best for the majority:

Hou 2/25
Bos 3/31

Houston I think will creep up too quick, however Boston I think could be a reality, plus it should be a WIN! (Sorry Tankers, love ya though!

I like the Mavs game and the Celtics game..should match up well and be competitive..the Mavs just to see Wes back here

 

[Orion Bailey]

Okay i got a $100 for it no prob.

Thats awesome, I would match to help make this thing happen to ensure everyone can go!

Saturday games would be great! Please nothing during the week and i am already going to the game on Sunday Jan 31st with my nephew. He gets to be on court and get a Tshirt. So i got to be there for that.
I think he is shooting a free throw for something also?

Oops, missed this. So you couldnt do a Thursday?

The Mavs game, Stren and I wouldn't be able to make it, but we COULD stop by and say hi!!!!!

I agree, but if company is what you seek, you've come to the wrong place.

Him and I are dating that night. It is SOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE! OH MY GERDZ.

Maybe BBert and JFizzle will double up with us?

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Tag team?

 

[Chris Craig]

I'm down for whatever game

 

[Orion Bailey]

Tag team?

Is that a new way of saying reacharound?

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Whatever you guys do is your own biz, I ain't here to judge.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Man, I'd love to do this but with cost, distance and my schedule it's just not feasible at this time.

 

[kjironman1]

Yes i can. Just like doing it on weekends better. I'm good whenever. pretty much except the 31st game vs the T wolves.

 

[VanillaGorilla]

Add @VanillaGorilla to the above list.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I would also like to add @BlazerCaravan and @jlprk to list of people who should come to the next get together.

 

[VanillaGorilla]

Once a date is figured out I'll try my best to make it. I definitely got jealous reading all the posts about the last one!

 

[Eastoff]

I'd prefer better seats over cheaper seats as long as my ticket share is under 70$

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Really @SlyPokerDog?

No @fezhammersticks?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Really @SlyPokerDog?

No @fezhammersticks?

@Fez Hammersticks

You didn't even tag him correctly.

There are a bunch of people I'm forgetting.

@Spud147

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Really @SlyPokerDog?

No @fezhammersticks?

That was intentional.

Not.

Swayed.

 

[BBert]

Yeah. The elusive Spud needs to show.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

I would also like to add @BlazerCaravan and [B]@jlprk[/B] to list of people who should come to the next get together.

That reminds me, I gotta get working on the Bellingham to Moda hippie bus.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Just get him an Amtrak ticket, he shouldn't be driving anymore.

 

[kjironman1]

Maybe Lanny?
