Zombie Ticket and trip to PDX - Help

[BBert]

What're you talking about? Did they totally redo the inside of the RG in the past couple years? Use to be they were above 200 and below 300 and circled the entire area.

I think those are the suites. We had a suite last year. This year I think we have sky boxes. They are indeed up in the sky. Terrible view of the game. But hey, at least we've got each other.

 

[BBert]

No, those are suites. Skyboxes are completely different.

I would have beaten you to this post, but it takes me forever to find a stupid emoji.

Question for staff: Is there some way to organize the emoji list, like they were before the 'upgrade'?

I'm sure I still would've beaten you, but it took me forever to find a seating chart picture I liked, snip the pic, and draw on it in a manner I deemed satisfactory.

Those are luxury suites, the skyboxes are in the corner, high above the 300 level.

Is there a place you guys watch away games together? Or a specific place for Blazers fans?

We're usually watching the game in HCP's living room, waiting our turn with Mrs. HCP.

The Rip City Fan Shop in the Moda Center is prob the best place to get your blazers gear (other than the Adidas Employee store if you can get hooked up there).

Also a big fan of the Portland Smash store at Lloyd Center although its a bit out of the way unless you are specifically looking for Blazers gear.

You can get a bunch of the www.trillblazin.net stuff over at Compound Gallery in Chinatown if you like that stuff.

I'd probably check out www.portlandgear.com near the Soccer Stadium. Good shirts to rock and pretty nice quality too.

you can also find a ton of Oden jersey's around the Goodwill, free box centers

the first rule of the Mrs HCP club is no one talks about the Mrs HCP club!

True. Madd skills BTW

for you I'll make an exception...and you should know Mrs HCP and Mr HCP are actually the same person

Well, we do bring our own camp chairs and coolers of beer. We got tired of fighting over seats on the couch and space in the refrigerator all the time.

Not sure of what food or vibe you're looking for but:

Jake's Crawfish- not the biggest fan of this place tbh but you'll find local seafood cooked pretty uniquely Portland and a pretty quintessential restaurant if its your first time there. Its right by the Ace too.

Tasty and Alder is also very close and is very good.

I'm a fan of Higgins restaurant as well which is also walkable. Very Northwest focused food and its better than Jake's. Just not as historic.

If you want more of a scene with pan asian food, go to Departure at the Nines hotel. Rooftop restaurant.

Little Bird Bistro is a good french bistro. They have a good burger.

Cheap steaks and strippers: The Acropolis (far from downtown though).

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

There's a restaurant attached to the Ace as well, Clyde Common. Its communal seating and pretty hoppin. I've never eaten there though.

You gotta post pics of your adventure too!

 

[SwissBlazer]

I am in the US since 2 and a half weeks with a road trip Atlanta - Nashville - Memphis - Houston - Monumet Valley - St George (UT) - Las Vegas. So my adventure is more than just Portland. But why not !

Those looks like solid suggestions. I probably will try the Jake's Crawfish!

 

[SwissBlazer]

And for the best sports bar in town? Any suggestion ? Thanks a lot for your help guys
