Taking my son


scratched

Recommended Posts

I know this is the football board but the basketball board can be kinda slow... Taking my son to our 1st Hornets game.. Just have a few first timer questions.. What time can we get in for A 7 OCLOCK game. Are we allowed down on the baseline to watch an take pics while they are warming up? Do they sign any autographs? If so, then when and where are the good places? Our tickets are in section 101, are these good seats? What fun stuff if any is there to do in the arena for the kiddo.. He is 8 years old.. thanks for the help guys and gals!

You should really have kept it in the Hornets board, because it's probably gonna get moved there anyway. 

But here are a few tips to help you out:

1) You can get in at 6 p.m. There will likely be a small line.

2) They're very stingy about letting you down there unless you're sitting there. You could ask though.

3) Players may or not sign autographs. They come out for pre-game shootarounds and are usually focused on that, but the sooner you get in, the better your chances are. It's a crap-shoot. I've seen 4-5 guys sign some nights and 0 on others. The best place is the tunnel where the Hornets come out onto the court. It's the one nearest the main entrance. Security will probably tell you you can't go there unless you sit in that section but if you tell them you're just going to get autographs with your kid they should be cool about it.

4) Stuff to do is more limited to outside the arena but there's a court kids can play on in the upper bowl I think.

My bro has seats in 103, if my memory serves me right 101 is right behind the players bench and you make get special access to certain areas depending on where exactly your ticket is. If you seats are close enough your kid will likely be entertained by the game and all the stuff going on on the court. Get him some nachos or popcorn and he should be good to go.

    • I agree it is more about the OL. If you happen to have a world beater with a great OL then that’s better obviously but you don’t need to have that.  Capable and durable guys that can get to the second level with good blocking can be plenty.  
    • I think Gibbs is special, but you’re right, some of the top investments have proven to not be much different than some 2nds and 3rds. Taylor for example is on an MVP level season. James Cook is doing better than Breece Hall for example. Raiders weren’t in a good spot to draft Jeanty. Same with the Falcons/Bijan.  You gotta swing at the right time — the investment shouldn’t come too early. You almost have to stumble into a guy mid to late rounds while building or find that guy to put you over the top when the team is finally well rounded.
    • Like I said in another post yesterday, the handling of the offensive line by Fitterer and mostly Morgan has been crazy. We've spent way too much money(Lewis and Hunt) to keep Bryce upright instead of using our picks in the 2nd round on JPJ and Frazier. Could have kept an injured Corbett at guard, Brady at swing, and still taken Maye as a backup, sorry Zavala. We wouldn't have taken XL, but XL hasn't been as advertised anyway, and Brooks hasn't contributed anything. Moton's extension with it's signing bonus made him uncutable. Icky's contract was due at the same time Bryce's 3rd year ended, and we all know it's extension or 5th year, and if we're going to do a 5th year, he's going to want the extension.  To me the whole thing is just ridiculous. Right now, depending on if Tepper decides to keep Bryce, it feels like we're going to have to choose between Icky and a Bryce extension. Maybe he plays on the 5th year, but I think he'll want the big money guarantee.  JMO, but if you took a look at how the contracts could potentially fall, the writing was on the wall that this could be a cash flow nightmare. Too many contract guarantees, not enough rookie contracts to offset the upcoming paydays.
