Earlier in the week, John called and asked if I wanted to go to the Laker vs. Jazz game on Saturday. Scott, John's bro in la, was able to get three tickets. Ofcourse, I went and on Saturday evening, I met John and Scott at the game. Due to a miscommunication in meeting time, I arrived just in time for tipoff, but they got there 30 minutes prior. This was my third game at the Energy Solutions Arena (two prior were Delta Center). I hadnt been for a few years, and this was my FIRST ever playoff game. Man o man, did we ever pick a great game to go to(as a Lakers fan, that is). We got some minor razzing during the game and at halftime as we walked around proudly strutting our Lakers gear. Actually one fan, said some pretty vulgar words at us as he walked by spouting off his mouth. I won't repeat what he said, but I wouldn't be surprised if he hadn't been drinking the entire first half. All in all, I believe he was more embarrassing to himself and didn't represent the other Jazz fans there. He was just an idiot. Another white trash, drunk would yell "Colby(Kobe) sucks" whenever Laker fans would walk by. John greeted the drunk and tried to correct him by saying its "KOBE", not "COLBY", but he was too stupid to realize what was going on. Win or lose, this was an awesome game to attend. There were several lead changes during the second half and it was freakin awesome. As we walked out of the arena, up 3-0...you almost feel bad for the Jazz fans. Not a single word was said about the Lakers anymore, and it was a real quiet walk out. I drove back south all by myself, and decided to stop in American Fork at the IN N OUT to celebrate. As I pulled up, the gal taking orders greeted me and asked if the Lakers had won. I gave her a breakdown of the game and she gave me a high five. Then she took my order. I then pulled up to the window to pay, and again was greeted with an employee who wanted to know about the Laker game. Again, I gave a breakdown of the game(at their request), and it ended with a fist bump. I drove the remaining ten minutes home while munching on my fries, Double double, and Vanilla shake. What a great night. These pics were taken from our iphones, so don't expect great quality...

It's funny how that guy called ME a "bleeping faggot" considering what he said to us just before that. Sorry outsiders, too vulgur to repeat here.
Good times.
Too cool, I love these kind of stories, they crack me up.
