It's a quiet day so I am bumping this up to get a bit more input...I am looking at the Miami Heat game on Friday, Jan 8th. What do you think? Can we get enough people to make this worth doing?
We've tried this before and never really gotten enough interest to make anything happen but based on the responses in the "Where are you from?" poll I figured it was worth trying again.
So I am throwing this out there to see who might be interested in getting together in the Phoenix area. With the Suns no longer selling out we could get a group discount that would probably come with some benefits like early admission or we could just do a local bar and watch a road game kind of thing.
I haven't thought through any details on where or when but first lets see if there's enough interest to make it worth the time...
Leave any ideas in the comments and we'll see where this goes.

I'm with you
I’m down for anything, but a group rate for a game would be awesome…. or I coulda just said +1… haha
I'm only in PHX on the weekends or else I'd love to go
If we could do a Fri – Sun eve game though I’d be down!
Steve Nash, the league's MVP, is a longhaired Canadian who spoke out against the war in Iraq and reads The Communist Manifesto. Quentin Richardson declared after a game-winning shot that it "was like Hamlet. It was a suspense thriller, and I killed them at the end." Amare Stoudemire, when asked to comment on a 22-point third quarter against the Kings, said, "I've got a tendency to jump over some guys' heads and throw it down."
I am thinking we need
at least 15 people to make this worth doing…lets see what happens

I'd love to
but it’d have to be a Friday or a Saturday game
They say "don't swim with the sharks", but I'm faster than sharks so it's not a big deal...
weekend games work better for me as well.
unless you’re talking between december 15th and january 21st (or so). then i’m good whenever. otherwise, semester duties take over my life.
i think i just realized, i’m probably the youngest of the regularly contributing members of the site.

22 here
Not that that is entirely relevant. But I’m from san antonio and I’d strongly consider coming for like a friday or saturday night game. If anyone has a place I can crash that would be an extra bonus but maybe not necessary. Hope I could pull this off with a 3 or 4 day weekend but I have to know within the next week or so so I can take off work. Would be a blast, man.
Crashing the [message] boards from the heart of Spurs Nation, San Antonio, Texas. GO SUNS!

Great Idea tho!

I voted for a local pub road game
since I shoot the home games =). And I only miss home games if I’m out of town or dead. So far I’m still alive.
I'm with this.
Road game get together sounds fun.

Any road game sounds great!
Saturday 12/12 against the Nugs or Friday 01/15 against ATL would be another good one. Weekends work better for me but I would make a weekday game work.
I like the 12/12 game with the Nugs
That game should be off the hook and we could get pretty crazy… I really dislike some of the Nuggets

+1
plus, i have a huge man crush on melo.

I'm cool with the 12/12 game BUT WHERE AT???
I’m in the west side, and there’s a bunch of cool places out here. Anyone have any ideas? Native New Yorker, Buffalo Wild Wings, what do you guys think?
Majerele’s? They’d have to give us a discount of sorts…Right?

if majerle's could do that, i'm in.
otherwise, native is always a solid place to go. i like their wings better than buffalo wild wings’ anyway.

I love majerle's boneless wings... mmmmm

How about you all come to Panama
and we watch the game in my favorite beach bar! =)

Yes.
Perfect. I’m doing this. At some point.
