Bulls v Blazers

Last night we went out to the Bulls game at the Rose Garden compliments of my parents. Game was pretty fun, lost by a bit, but some great plays to see. The Rose Garden was pretty enjoyable, great atmosphere, but I will say pretty miserable food. Next time we go we’ll have to rely a bit more on Dibs and soft-serve.

We have a few notes for everyone out there:

Whenever Rudy Fernandez was taking free throws, a Bulls fan behind us would yell “soccer player!” Not sure why. The best we can figure is that in the program handed out at the doors it had an interview with Rudy and they asked what other sports he liked. He answered soccer and tennis.

There was a dad in front of us and he was fist-pumping and air-punching up a storm. Some incredibly ridiculous moves.

On the jumbotron, they showed a probably 12 year old kid wearing a Bulls jersey, who immediately responded with what would have been a motion with one hand underlining the Bulls on the front of his jersey. However, he did it much too high, so it looked more like a motion conveying the message of ‘we will serve your head on a platter.’ Creepily hilarious.

If you renew your season tickets before March 1st, you will get a Wesley Matthews “3-goggle” bobblehead. This is when you basically make the OK sign with each hand and hold them up to your eyes with the other three fingers pointing out.

I am definitely getting tired of the accopella trend. Every college now has one and you have to see them everywhere. They did both the national anthem and the halftime show. Most of these groups buy their arrangements and so most of the time you hear the same four songs as before. I’m tired of seeing a new group do the same songs in the same way. It really irritates me.



And that’s the news. Lots of fun, bunch of people out in colors and jerseys, and definitely a lively crowd. Sadly, I didn’t have my camera with me. We’ll just have to do it again to get some pictures.
