Courtside Baby!

Warrior Girls!
Monday night I definitely had an experience worth a post: Courtside tickets (actually we were ON the court) to the Warriors v. Spurs game--woot! How did this happen, you may ask? Well, thanks to CSM's CEO who has fab season tickets and his lovely assistant, my friend Carina, not to mention some flexible weeknight schedules (Soni & Chels), we were all able to make it to the game together, in a style that couldn't have been more comfortable or convenient.
Entering through the special "Plaza Club Entrance" after parking in our free-with-ticket VIP parking lot, our tickets (listed as $1,800 a pop!) got us into the game with ease.
I can't describe my heart-pounding surprise when we got to our actual seats. I mean, it's one thing to say "courtside" quite another to be right there with all the players (so tall and muscular!) and directly behind the photographers! It was literally not possible to have better seats than we did--I'm still in awe.
To be honest, I felt a little guilty that we had such great seats. I definitely love a live game, especially of basketball since I used to play, but I have friends that are much bigger fans of the Warriors specifically. For those people, you already know that the Warriors lost to the Spurs in overtime (sad to see the scoreboard above) but still, it was a great game to watch.

Still can't believe our great seats. These 2 videos give you a little better taste of where we were at:

Hooray for another great "first" of 2009!
