Utah Jazz

So first things first, before I can blog about our cruise I have to catch up about the Pistons/Jazz game we sat COURT SIDE at! We have been wanting to go to one since we moved here and we finally made it happen. And I'll tell ya what, court side is the way to go if you only go once a season!
We started off with dinner at a cool restaurant that is also a Bocce club.


Then off to The Palace for the game!

Pre-game


View from out seats
Game shots (sorry for the blurry pics, our camera was on it's last leg)The legend himself...Jerry Sloan. This man is the reason for Ryan's screen name "Sloanhater" He thinks it's time for ol'Jerry to retire

These guys were awesome, I don't remember their group name but they are basically a bunch of fat guys who did this hip hop dance during one of the breaks.
Post-game
So the game was great and of course, our Utah Jazz pulled off an easy win. Till next year!

Cougars defeated again


OK, so technically they are Penn State Nittany Lions but they sure remind me of BYU cougars :) We inherited some free tickets to the MSU/Penn State game last night which was our first game at the Breslin Center. What a good game too! MSU played like crap but they scraped a last minute victory out of it. I love sporting events (except maybe hockey). I love the getting dressed in school colors and school spirit and I love watching the student section. I wish I had gone to a college that had a "student section." What I don't love is that alcohol brings out the idiot in people. But I shouldn't complain, it's job security :) Anyway, GO SPARTANS!
