Utah Jazz vs Oklahoma City Thunder

We bought jazz tickets for the kids for Christmas this year and they have been so excited to go. They have patiently waited for the big day to come, and finally it is here. Friday night we went to Salt Lake to the Energy Solutions Arena to watch the Jazz take on the Oklahoma City Thunder. The kids had to get all dressed in Jazz attire so no one would mistake them for Thunder fans. We then had to purchase our souvenirs so that we could get it out of the way and so we could enjoy the game. All of the kids decided on Basketballs. The game was kind of a blow out Jazz winning by about 20, but we had a really good time.

GO JAZZ !!!!!!





After the game the kids wanted to try to get autographs from some of the players. We went down to where they were interviewing and got to see Ronnie Brewer. Bailey was hoping for Kyle Korver, because she thinks he is so HOT!!! The boys just wanted to see anyone, but they kind of have a liking for Paul Millsap because they have signed jerseys from him. (Chad has a friend, Lyndon Johnson, that coaches basketball and had Paul Millsaps brother on his team so we got some signed stuff from him.) None of the other players came out to sign so we had to settle for Ron Boone, the commentator for the Jazz. The kids had him sign their basketballs. I guess that will have to do for now. Next time we will have to go earlier to the game so we can maybe get some of the players autographs.
