greet the returning Blazers?

[Eastoff]

Would you try to greet the Blazers at the airport for their success on the road?

 

[J~Rush]

I wouldn't. But I don't think I'd greet them at the airport if they won a championship.

 

[KingSpeed]

I would if I was there.

 

[Bob Dobalina]

Personally I've always thought it was cool that fans did that, though I've never done it. Yet.

 

[Wheels]

if I was there I for sure would!

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

That'd be the epitome of Blazermania.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

That'd be the epitome of Blazermania.

Indeed, but it's gotta fit the accomplishment. If they win game 2, I'd be so f'ing tempted...

 

[Nikolokolus]

Maybe if they win game two, but really this kind of thing should be reserved for the WCF or the finals ... doing it now would just feel kind of premature or overdoing it (like wearing a tux to out to eat at McDonalds)

 

[THE HCP]

Their better be some HCP signs!

Don't tell me you've never done that. If you haven't, you don't know what you're missing.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

that's usually reserved for winning the WCF.

 

[mgb]

I wouldn't. Last time I did was when we split in the finals against the Pistons and then we lost 3 in a row! I'm in Gresham, almost in Boring, so that was a long drive too!

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

If we win tonight, we gotta do it!

I remember going once when I was a kid. It was fun!

 

[Sug]

If they were to win both games in Phoenix I would.

 

[HailBlazers]

If they were to win both games in Phoenix I would.

+1

Let's GO BLAZERS!

 

[Paxil]

Seriously if they win tonight... I bet people will be there. I wish they flew into Hillsboro like they did in the old days.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Where do they fly into now? I remember going out to Hillsboro in 1990 and 1992 - what a rush!

What part of the Portland International is that? Is that on the South side over by the airbase or is it on the North side towards the end near the hotels? I thought they still flew into Hillsboro. PDX would make it very tempting.

 

[HOWIE]

Flightcraft-PDX
Portland Intl
7777 NE Airport Way
Portland, Oregon, 97218
USA

 

[THE HCP]

On Airport Way just before the ramp up to drop off or pick people up.

 

[THE HCP]

The guys would love it if there was a bunch of people cheering for them!

 

[HOWIE]

what time does the flight come in? I'm just trying to plan my day.

Just follow the Isiah Rider loogies.

 

[ehizzy3]

Maybe if they flew into the hillsboro airport since I'm one minute away from there

 

[LameR]

I did it last year after they lost the series against the Rockets. I'd do it again.

 

[HailBlazers]

DO IT

 

[alex42083]

Hell.. I'd do it if we win tonight. That'd be awesome. Just want to know when the flight gets in!

 

[bwbw]

Not sure what year it was...Adelman/Drexler/Porter/Buck/Duck/Jerome era...My husband and I happened to be in Portland when the team came limping back into Hillsboro from L.A. in the middle of a series with the Lakers. We went out there and were among a thousand or so Blazer Maniacs....showing support. They seemed to appreciate it and it was a blast. What else do you have to do in the middle of the night? Do it!!!

This isn't what I'm talking about ...
