  • Once in a lifetime opportunity. Woo Hoo!!

    On Oct.31 the Bulls will play their season/home opener.

    I have been invited to the game... COURTSIDE SEATS!!!

    I have been blessed to have attended many Bulls games in my lifetime, but never on the court. I do not know anybody that has tickets. I only know of a couple of people who have ever sat at courtside.

    A friend of mine works for a company whose purchasing agent would normally get the tickets (once or twice a year). The P.A.'s wife said he can't go because he has to take his kids trick or treating. So the supplier offered them to my Engineering friend, who invited me. I said yes.

    Courtside, west foul line TV camera side.

    Woo Hoo!!

    you'll have a great time.
    at times at United Center, I used to get "stuck" front row behind the basket, and every timeout, the LuvaBulls cheerleaders were just about popping out onto my laptop. A little awkward when you're engaged and your gal is in the stands!

    No other major sport compares in terms of how close you get to the action - the NBA is the one.

    can't recall their layout anymore - is that the side the benches are on? mixed blessing unless you are well over 7 feet tall, lol.

    Chicago Stadium courtside was "raw" - felt like you were at the edge of a gladiators pit, and the crowds seemed ready to storm the court. one playoff game, some Knicks and Bulls wound up tussling into the stands and the place went crazy.

    United Center is a LOT more corporate, but the buzz will still be terrific. I'm very happy for you.

    Oh, and if you catch an errant pass out of bounds, you have to throw it back - even if it's tossed out by a Bull.

      Thanks. We will be opposite the benches.

      I was at that Knicks, Bulls game when the fight went into the stands. I had nose bleed seats. I went to about 70% of the home games from Jordon's Sophmore Season until the Basketball Strike of 98.

          There may have been some salty language used.

              I'm very confused. How is this a trick religious question?

              Just kidding.... sounds cool, Gregg.

                  Ummm...duh...because if it is not a miracle how would you explain that I would ever get a chance to sit in these seats?



                  Thanks.
