The L.A. Lakers game


Well, last Thursday, exactly a week ago from this very day, I was at a Lakers game - for those who doesn't know, Lakers is a NBA basketball team, and they were having a pre-season game vs another NBA team: Golden State Warriors, respectively from San Fransisco. I went with Truls, a Norwegian friend of mine. We took the best seats available, and had to pay freakin 80$ for the ticket. And the tickets was very close to the 35$ tickets, but it doesn't matter, we couldn't know that! And it was an awesome game, so I don't regret it for a second that I payed for the best seats!


In the start, we didn't sit at our own seats, because we had seats EE row 18 seat 15 & 16. But we sat at E row 18 seat 15/16 the first quarter of the game. But after a while the owners of that seat came, and we had to look for our own seat.

And of course, how could I not tell; the Lakers girls. They entertained us in every time-out and every pause between the four different quarters. It wasn't the most amazing show, but they were all pretty decent looking, so there is nothing wrong about enjoying their lame entertainment.

As the game was closing in, we went to the courtside, and sat on the 4th row or something, the last quarter or something. This was cool, and we got a close look at Lakers' coach - Phil Jackson, a legendary Basketball coach, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (old school Michael Jordan?) He is now the assistant coach of Lakers, I think. He is the NBA player with the highest total points together in all time! And of course, this times Michael Jordan: Kobe Bryant! He is at the moment the worlds best player, and it was AWESOME! I actually was so lucky, that I got a video of a 360 slam-dunk of him, which I will try to post in this blog!
