    How many of you will there be? Ever heard of Julian's. It's not necessarily bbq, but it's a fun, lively, large sports bar. Any interest in meeting up there after the game? If so, PM me.

    Thanks.

    Got your PM, thanks.

    Yes, I believe Jillian's is a chain. The one in Charlotte is nice.


    Oh, Here's the driving directions from the arena. Pretty close.

    If you're looking for really good local bbq and a nice beer selection, I'd recommend Mac's Speed Shop. (oh, and I hear the mac & cheese is to die for.)

    HCP, MB just came through with a ticket. Might see you at the game, though!

    ISWB, got your e-mail. I'll give you a call tomorrow.

    Go Blazers!

    Not sure where I'll be sitting. Mike Barrett was kind enough to get me a ticket....waiting in will-call. At any rate, a bunch of us will be at Mac's Speed House (bbq) at around 4:30 for food and beers. Feel free to join us!!

    If you want my cell number, go ahead an PM me. I'll be around the hotel for another half hour, or so.

    Go Blazers!!

    From one HCP to another: that was scandalous! I called the number and just got your sister on the line.
    I know you are trying to hook her up.....but come on, give a man some kind of warning. Her voice sounds like a mix between Freddy Kruger, Mariah Carey caught in a bear trap and a pterodactyl going in for the kill. Sheeesh.
    Have fun with that.

    I did but not of other fans. There were none near me... well there was but they were not wearing any blazers gear. I did see a kid in an Ohio State Oden Jersey. I didn't feel like taking a picture on some kid though. Thought that would look creepy. I had my smaller camera that didn't much zoom. Next time.

    Not sure if this was talked about but what is up with the bobcats announcer? Sounds like an out of work radio DJ who is trying to hard. ALSO he called Przybilla "Joe Przybilla" and it was for the whole game. Unless I was drunk and that was what I heard. Again sorry if this was already talked about. been gone for a few days and can't read everything.

    Thats okay. It seems that theres a lot more east coast Blazer fans besides the ones in Oregon. I remember Mike and Mike talking about Blazer fans in the crowd on a east road trip in December? I think Rebecca H even did a report on a couple on how far they traveled to see their blazers?
