I hope you get more publicity because what you're doing is really great. :D (just sucks that the Celtics had to be bad with fans like you)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276933422884722187.post-62397982609867648852008-03-16T12:09:00.000-05:002008-03-16T12:09:00.000-05:00Fan, I'd happily give you a shoutout on the blog o...Fan, I'd happily give you a shoutout on the blog or on a poster - just gotta let me know who you are and where you are from?!!?!Drew Cieszynskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03397041546054654278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276933422884722187.post-24021580299019544442008-03-16T02:42:00.000-05:002008-03-16T02:42:00.000-05:00Yo dude!

I mean, I'd do it myself, but right now, I'm a little short on the financial side of stuff. Just looking at the pictures makes me really happy and I really do hope that I'll be able to do what you're doing right now. I haven't even been in one NBA game! But I love the NBA and knowing that there are other fans that are going the distance for this league is just amazing. You're my hero!<BR/><BR/>Maybe you could give me a shoutout in one of your posters the next time you're in a game.

If you want all this detail, I suggest reading "Traveling: 3 months on the NBA Road" by John Nordahl. In all likelihood, I will follow this up with a book that bores the hell out of everyone with detail & takes shots, but for now I'm not going to take any shots at a team who has taken me into their home & shown me a good time.Drew Cieszynskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03397041546054654278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276933422884722187.post-42294876283177663472008-03-15T06:21:00.000-05:002008-03-15T06:21:00.000-05:00First off, congratulations on going to each NBA ar...First off, congratulations on going to each NBA arena. It must be a fun and a unique experience.<BR/><BR/>That said, and at the risk of sounding inflammatory, you really aren't saying anything particularly witty or insightful about your experiences. You're posting too many pictures and not writing enough about the teams, their fans, their arenas. <BR/><BR/>You can't poke fun at Memphis a bit? This is a franchise that has virtually given its roster away for nothing. They're at the bottom of the league. The place must be a morgue when they play, yet you overlook it, posting pictures of the VIP "buffet area."<BR/><BR/>You went to Miami. Seriously, do the Heat even get 1,000 people for a game? And if so, who are these suckers? <BR/><BR/>I just think there's a chance here to do something more than just going to these arenas to shoot basketballs, sit courtside, and eat shrimp cocktails.<BR/><BR/>Take a chance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276933422884722187.post-10375846770439380682008-03-14T13:33:00.000-05:002008-03-14T13:33:00.000-05:00Dude, comin' over here from the Ball Don't Lie Blo...Dude, comin' over here from the Ball Don't Lie Blog. What you are doing is seriously awesome!<BR/><BR/>Damn, Memphis' food looks like they could give a guy a heart attack in just one sitting. After reading this post, I decided I should at least head over there at some point in my life. Too bad about the Celts though.<BR/><BR/>Good job man!

I hope that you rate it in the end as your best place. Memphis knows how to give its guest a good time.<BR/><BR/>Too bad that the Grizzlies didn't win so you could enjoy that too.

Glad you enjoyed your visit to Memphis - but too bad you missed the actual Stax Museum, after your reference from the "Snax" food bar in FedEx Forum.
