These banners can also be seen at the PARROTS game...Get it? It's an anagram joke! HA HA ...ha?
When you run a sometimes funny mediocre website, certain opportunities present themselves. Courtside tickets to the Raptors game for instance. Everything is better when you’re closer. Prime example:
Cheerleaders! Finally close enough to grope!
So how much do courtside tickets cost?
That’s steep, but it’s the price you pay to have a camera man sit on your feet. New fetish of mine. His name is Bruce. I’m seeing him tomorrow night so he can sit on my feet..while he’s naked…and holding a camera.
Do you mind? Trying to watch a game here pal.
He was only there for a moment. Maybe because I kept kicking him and spilling beer down his shirt.
It’s also the price you pay to share the same floor as the players. Is there any other sport where you can get so close to the action?
Looks like Williams is a giant and he's petting little Bargnani's head. "Good Boy, Barns, good boy!" (Truth is, Bargnani is 7 feet tall).
I also got to share the floor with the newest Leaf defenseman, Dion Phaneuf and star winger, Phil Kessel (not pictured). They both acknowledged me when I drunkenly declared my love for them as they walked by.
Dion, I love you!
More importantly, I got to see Vanilla Ice. He’s the real reason I went to the game. His set-list included Play That Funky Music, and you guessed it, Ice Ice Baby.
I actually have a personalized autograph from Vanilla Ice when he visited Fanshawe in London, Ontario. Jealous?
Oh right, I also got to meet Canada’s 18th Prime Minister, Brian Mulroney!
I bet Brian is telling everyone about how he met Me at the Raptors game. In case you didn't notice, I am on a first name basis with Bri Bri.
Seems like a cool night, but to cap it all off I found this:
People must've thought I was nuts (HA!) taking a picture of a peanut on the subway, but that's one beautiful triple peanut. By the way, this peanut is currently for sale on Ebay - the price: $1,100.
I hope you enjoyed my courtside photo adventure. In case you’re wondering, the Raptors were playing the lowly New Jersey Nets and won 108-99.
What are the best tickets you’ve ever had to a event? Does a camera man sitting on your feet turn you on? Do you like Brian Mulroney?
