    You shoulda heard the stupid remarks by the Lakers fans sitting behind me. I told my wife I'd give her a thousand bucks if she'd shoot the son of a bitch. Everything he said he repeated once and sometimes twice. My God, I begged for him to shut up. Of course, I begged inside my head 'cause he looked and sounded like he was itching for a fight.

    Oh the pure joy, when he finally gave up with about two minutes left and left in complete silence.

    The crowd waved bye bye whenever the cameral showed Laker fans leaving. I haven't seen this much joy from Portland fans since the last time we played the Lakers in Portland.

    Joy to the world!

    Just got home myself. Had Laker fans behind me too. Very full of themselves. I wouldn't let them start chants. A woman right behind me kept hitting me in the head with her purse. Everytime they tried to start a chant, I got a portland chant going. Man, the beat LA chants in the 4th were booming. I was saying bye to the Lakers fans as they left. Thanked them for coming. Told em have a good night.

    After the Paul Allen tribute (which told you all about Paul Allen), a Lakers fan turned to me and asked "Who was that guy?" That is the brand of idiots we were dealing with here.

    ChrisCraig and I got to meet up which was nice and I think I saw you, Lanny. Do you look like Robin Lopez? Big hair under a hat? If not you, who is that? I know I've met him before.

    Nope that wasn't me. I was with my Asian wife in section 112, near the center court line in row D. They brought me in in a wheel chair and took me out in the same.

    I was going to sell my tickets but when Paul Allen died everything changed. I wanted to be there for his memorial.

    The loud mouthed guy behind me didn't seem to understand basketball although he talked as though he were an expert in the game. He was very loud and thought ever Laker foul was a travesty of justice. When he slipped out of there he was dead silent. It still brings a smile to my face even now.

    Edit: ps Sorry I missed you guys. I always love meeting up with people from S2.

    I use to come down the aisle near Wheels and wave hello to him but these days I ride a wheel chair and take the elevator down to the basement level and enter from there. Use to sit behind Stotts but my wife made me give that seat up. I liked coming through the tunnel that the Blazers use. Now, I enter through the tunnel where the honor guard and the Blazer dancers form up.

    Hobbes, Sly and HomerLovesKoolaid and I sometimes get together at games and sometimes at my house for watching an away game. I use to know other guys but they were from OregonLive. and not S2.

    My wife and I went home with big grins on my face. I was happy that the loud mouthed guy had to slink home. My wife is far too nice to think that so she was just happy about the win.

    You'll never meet a nicer person than my wife. Well, that is as long as I do my chores.

    Double Edit: You can always tell me by the Blazer garb including either a US Army or Blazer hat.

    Oh man. There are Laker fans here in mass quantities. Luckily I don't have to be around them at a game like you poor fellas.

    That must be brutal.

    All kinds of people were turning their heads to see who this jerk was, even my wife, and she never does that. Now, when you get my wife riled up, you've done some serious riling.

    Oh, they were

    All that hope in Lebron. Sans James they are pretty much the same shitty team as last year. Lebron is going to have to drag them to the playoffs, if they get there.

    You would be correct. This is a man who can scream from a skybox above the 300-level and be heard on the court (allegedly).

    Do you normally mention your wife like that? I have never typed, “Last night, while out with my Scottish wife, we attended a game.” Didn’t know if you were joking or not.
