Matt & I are big Utah Jazz fans. Matt's previous employer had a suite at the Energy Solutions Arena & for the past few seasons we have been able to go to a few games the fancy way. We also went to a few on our own dime (keyword dime) and usually end up sitting in the double letter sections where you are up so high you feel like you might just fall forward and plunge to your death. We aren't really picky though it's pretty much fun no matter what.
Last weekend our neighbors invited us to join them for the Jazz vs. Clippers game on Friday night. They had 19th row seats. That's right, 19th row. We were all over it even if it meant getting up Saturday morning at 4:30 am so we could be to Idaho in time for our Temple tour. A small sacrifice for sure.
We had dinner at the Texas Roadhouse. It was delicious and Lyn got to saddle up in order to get a tiny scoop of free ice cream for her birthday. (Isn't it lucky that I had packed my camera for the trip and had it conveniently with me at dinner?)
Matt pointed out a guy walking down the aisle in a very ostentatious bright orange crushed velvet jacket. I heard some guy behind me laughing about the jacket and how the guy must have bought it at the D.I. Later during the game, the announcer welcomed John Malkovich to the game and what do you know, his jacket was orange. Of all the celebrities in town for Sundance (U2, Tom Hanks, Maroon 5, Jack Black, Matthew Broderick...) we get to see John Malkovich.
See how close we are. It was a fun game, especially because we completely destroyed the Clippers.
The game wasn't really ever very close. The Jazz Bear provided some good entertainment. Much better than those blasted Jazz dancers. He walked all the way up. I am not quite sure how.
