So we have this AMAZING friend, Chris, and he has AMAZING courtside seats to the Utah Jazz...which he was SUPER nice to share with us!
CAVEAT: Get ready to be jealous...this date night with my sweetheart was pretty much a typical man's bucket list item...one we have been able to check off TWICE now!
So here's how it went down. A few weeks before Christmas our dear friend invited us and our fun neighbors, the Maughans, to take his tickets to the Jazz's season home opener game against the Sixers. We obliged (of course!). :)
So we started the night driving to the game with our dear friends, and parked in the VIP lot across the street from the arena. (Lucky, right!? just wait...)
From our short walk to the game, we were taken by elevator up to the dining area where we were treated to a DELISH and fancy dinner, over looking the downtown area and beautiful Temple Square. The food and conversation were both wonderful. Then before the game started we snagged a couple ice cream cones and headed down to our seat...on the 3rd ROW!!! COURTSIDE!!! We settled in, trying to look like we belong there while the players warmed up right in front of us! I am always amazed at how big these guys are up close, but they are somehow super-athletic and coordinated too. True athletes.
Here we are before the game:
During the game: (I was trying to get a booty shot of one of the players...this was the best I could get...those guys are fast = nice booties. :) )
It wound up being a REALLY close game...super fun to watch and very exciting at the end...have no fear however, the JAZZ WON!!! Thus...the confetti...
My favorite part of the game was probably the fireworks show at the beginning...yes...fireworks! InSiDe!!! It was pretty incredible. :)
My favorite part of the night was being with my honey and our great friends. What a night! Thanks again Chris!! We had a wonderful time. :)
