    Anybody going? My wife and kids are having a "play group" dinner, so I think I'll head to the Rose Garden after work.

    Grab some free tickets at a Wells Fargo today and watch the guys scrimmage tonight!

    Personally I'm not gong. But if attending posters tell us their thoughts afterwards, it will be much appreciated.

    Good idea. Will do! I'll bring the x300 lens and try to get some closeups.

    I'm not a video guy. My wife and I laugh whenever I am responsible for the video. Frankly, the end result always sucks.

    I'm going. I'll attempt to recap what I see, if I don't get too drunk.

    So much for the Fan Fest. I called 10 Wells Fargo branches and none of them have any tickets left.

    It's a free event and simply isn't worth the trouble at this point. Oh well...

    Every other year that I've gone, I've *always* just gotten the "tickets" at the door. There's always been plenty of staff on-hand, walking about and asking whther or not anybody needed tickets. Have no fear, Papa', you'll easily be able to get in.

    If anyone is downtown and is looking for tickets, you can go to the concierge's desk on the first floor of the Wells Fargo Tower. Enter on the 4th Avenue side (not the 5th Avenue bank lobby side), walk through the elevator lobbies to the back side of the first floor and go to the concierge's desk. As of this morning at 8:30 a.m. there was a stack of tickets just sitting on that desk.

    They are expecting a "sell out". That is crazy!

    Just show up outside the door. They'll let you in.

    BTW, if you want a data point as to whether or not Blazermania is back, check out PapaG's quote.

    It sounds like the thing tonight is going to be a sell-out, and HCP's post confirms it.

    I kind of miss the days when no one was at the games. :devilwink:

    All the season-ticket holders get tickets to the Fan Fest. People will always offer you some outside of the door.
