Jazz game

Last Thursday, Ryan and I had an incredible opportunity to go to the pre-season game opener for the Jazz vs. the Denver Nuggets. My uncle is part of the 100 Club, so he has 4 court side season tickets next to the opposing team bench, he wasn't able to make it down for the game, so he offered two to my grandparents, and the other two to us! We were so excited to go! As a part of the 100 Club, we were able to eat an AMAZING dinner before the game on the top floor of the Energy Solutions Arena with incredible views, and during half-time, we got to go into a VIP area below with tons of chips, popcorn, nachos, drinks, cheese and crackers, etc! We were stuffed by the time we left!

During the game, our feet were literally ON the court! In fact, during one of the timeouts, Ryan stood up to stretch his legs, and the security person asked him to "please sit back down, so you aren't in their huddle"! It was crazy! Before the game started, the Nuggets were all sitting on their bench, and Ryan looked over and found that he was sitting right next to Carmello Anthony! haha!

It was such a fun experience, and we had such a great time spending the whole night with my Grandma and Grandpa, they are such fun company! And thanks SO SO SO much to my Uncle Chris for letting us use your tickets and go to the game!


fun date night!

  3. that is awesome. I use to screen all the NBA teams after the games for them to fly home and we got to watch the games from just inside the tunnels. My husband was always so jealous but I loved it. I miss seeing and chatting with all the players. A lot of them are nicer than you think they would be.
