What was your first Hornets Game you attended?

I moved to Charlotte in early 1990, just after Hugo.  I either attended a game at the end of the 89-90 season or beginning of 90-91 season.  My aunt would get tickets through her job for all kinds of things, including Hornets games.  This was the beginning of my Charlotte sports fandom.

Waaaay more Hornets games than Panthers games for sure.

I was at the Celtics playoff game when Zo tipped in the last shot. I was at a couple of the Kobe games when we kept beating them.

I was at that Bobcats game when Matt Carrol went off while we were leaving, we had to turn back around because the crowd was going crazy.

I was at opening night.  Man, the Hive was so damn great back then.  Good times.

I was there too--remember those souvenir tickets in plexiglass that they gave out?  Remember people wearing tuxedos?  Remember Cleveland handing us about a 40 point loss to a standing ovation?

One and only Hornets game I attended was a Saturday afternoon game in 1994. Sat in the wrong seats and the usher said, "No, you're down here..." and we ended up sitting right behind Bill Walton doing the color for whatever TV station. Alonzo, Dell Curry, Grandmama, Mugsy, and Robert "The Chief" Parish was finishing up his career after all his great years in Boston.

Great thing about being that close is hearing all the trash talk.

    • ...Yea...its definitely time to start thinking about a back. Chubba has been a plus... damn Stewart and Williams were some sht...thats our measurable....we need a dawg a la freddie lane
    • Yea regardless of what these people want to argue,  or if you want to say he had little impact or not.  Every qb he has worked with had their best statistical season while he was working with them.
    • Chuba is a good back and we are lucky Matt Rhules wife made this draft pick. But, he is entering the final year of his contract. Plus it’s good to have a solid rotation of backs on hand. I think RB is a sneaky need this off-season, I would be surprised if Sanders was still on the roster this time next year(maybe he turns it around). Even Blackshear will be a free agent, drafting a RB this year sets us up with leverage of not being forced to resign Chuba. The best RB fit in my eyes for a Dave Canales offense, is a quick first step home run hitting RB. Why not pair the most explosive RB in the draft with a creative offensive HC. Plus we could grab Jaylen Wright in the 3-4th round.   If you guys wanna check out the video I made about Jaylen Wright it’s linked below!
