The fans tonight

I went to game one and sat in the lower bowl. It sucked.

I went to game five and sat in the 300 level. It was awesome. The fans were amazing tonight. Everyone was loud and into the game. I honestly can't say I've ever seen the fans this pumped up after a round 1 win. People were honking their horns, chanting, and screaming as everyone left the garden tonight. Everyone is pumped. Everybody rocked tonight and I was proud of our fans. GO BLAZERS!!!!!

Oh..... and very few people cheered for Aaron Brooks this time

 

It was awesome!! Screw 100 level.. real fans up in 300! I got high-fives and gave high-fives to everyone around me. Sweeeett!!! GO BLAZERS!!!!

 

<--- 100 level fan.

 

It's louder up top Eric. No doubt.

 

I usually sit in the 100 level halfway up and have a great time. Tonight I llucked into some 100 level tickets in the 10th row. The dude behind us (blazers fan) yelled at us for standing up too much and more or less was said he was ready to "take it outside" with us! I wish he would have the same kind of passion towards the game! It's the playoffs for goodness sake.

 

yeah, you're also watching most of the game on the jumbo tron. FAIL.

 

Exactly why I prefer the 300 level. No one really cares, especially during playoffs, if you're standing. Everyone was standing up top in the last 4 mins or so.

 

should have knocked him the fuck out in front of his wife.

 

you're a loser

 

that was my first playoff game since the Dallas series, and it was fucking awesome!

 

Most of the people in the lower bowl are more concerned about buying beer than the actual game.

 

nope. I'm awesome!

they call it the nosebleeds for a reason. I watched a game up there once...while it was loud, you could barely see the action on the court. When you're in the 100s the only time you look at the jumbo tron is to watch replays.

 

Everyone was standing down low for the last 4 minutes or so, too. I have had mostly positive experiences in the 100 level. But I don't think you should get punished for being excited about the game - especially in the playoffs. I wonder what the Rose Garden's stance is on this. I paid for the seats, does that mean I literally have to sit in them the whole time?

 

yea for no fights tonight in my section!!!!

 

huh??? what does buying beer have to do with them wanting to sit down the whole time?

 

because they have money to buy the beer instead of sneaking flasks in or getting drunk at home and then hitch-hiking to the game.

 

Every time I've sat in the lower section, I've had to get up countless times for people in my row who makes a number of trips to get beers. It's so fucking irritating.

 

Perhaps, but I bet you've never tried to fight someone because you had to stand up to let them out!

 

Of course not. I'm more covert. Knock over one of their beers when they're not looking.
