    In my meeting with the Blazers we talked about watching another game from a suite this season. Last year's suite game was a hell of a lot of fun. The problem was only 20 people could go. To give more people an opportunity to go this season instead of one suite game we're going to have 2 skybox games.

    Suites are above the 200 level, the skyboxes are up in the 300 level. The skyboxes hold 15 people and we get it for two games so 30 people total get to go instead of the 20 people last year.

    The expectations for this year's team is much higher than last year and because of that the available suites and skyboxes are booking up fast.


    Here are the 3 dates that are available for the skybox. We get 2 of those.

    11/25 vs New Orleans - Black Friday

    12/26 vs Toronto - Day after Christmas

    2/9 vs Boston - Thursday night


    Above is a poll, vote for the 2 games/dates you like best. Even if you can't make it to any of the games vote anyways. Just because you vote doesn't guarantee that you get to go to that or any of the games. I'm guessing that we'll have to have a drawing for each game once we know what those are.

    The only one I could attend is 12/26 but I went last year so put me at the very bottom of the list. Would like to see new blood step up and go.

    So far 2/9 is the most feasible but the 12/26 is a remote possibility...might be overseas then but not sure

    I would love to see Boston come to town. 2/29 would be perfect for me. But whatever schedules best for everybody else is fine with me. Cout me in.

    I’m In a Suite



    [Intro]

    Aww Shit

    Get your beers ready its about to go down

    Everyone in the place on your fucking feet

    Put your arms in the air yo

    S2 is running this now, lets go


    [Chorus]


    I’m in a suite (I’m in a suite)

    I’m in a suite (I’m in a suite)

    Everybody look at me I am chillin a suite (Chillin in a suite)

    I’m in a suite (I’m in a suite)

    I’m in a suite

    Take a good look at the motherfucking suite (suite, yeah)


    I’m in a suite motherfucker take a look at me

    Sampling hot dogs and veggies and shit, see

    Gonna put my name tag on, gee isn’t that neat

    You can’t stop me motherfucker cause I’m in a suite


    Take a Selfie, shit (shit) I’m in a suite, bitch (bitch)

    Wookies drinking Coors Light, cause its so easy

    I got my bling, and my jersey

    I’m at the game, you watching from your old ass TV


    I’m riding on a high, hootin and hollerin

    The high is spreading, getting everybody set

    But, this ain’t CSN, this is as real as it gets.

    I’m in a suite motherfucker, don’t you ever forget


    I’m in suite, and its getting pumped up in here and

    I’ve got a blazers themed throw blanket man

    I’m the king of the Moda Center, in a suite like no other

    If your up in the nose bleeds, then your not me, yo

    (Get the fuck up, this suite is REAL!!!)


    Fuck level 300, I’m in a suite, motherfucker (motherfucker)

    Fuck the jumbo tron, I can see just fine, motherfucker (motherfucker)

    I’m on the balcony with my boys, motherfucker (motherfucker)

    All of us in this suite make some noise, motherfucker


    Hey ma, if you could see me now (see me now)

    My middle finger held high, bitch’n the refs out (the refs out)

    Gonna stay in this suite till the clock runs out

    Like Duncan, everything ends somehow





    Yeah, never thought I’d be in a suite

    It’s a big ass room, with lots of S2 members to meet

    Nike !! Look at me, oh (all hands in the air)

    Never thought I’d see the day

    When a big suite comin my way

    Believe me when I say, I fantasized about a blazer dancer


    [chorus]


    *Adapted from I'm on a boat lyrics.

    UCD and I will be there, if allowed. I might be shunned cuz my busy work schedule made it so I couldn't attend the last event. I know how it went last year. Gotta attend everything for priority.

    I'm down for after christmas and the 9th.

    Can we make sure the first game we try to get as many people that didn't make the suite game last year in... and then fill it up from there?
