Venue : Toyota Center, Houston
Game : Rockets Vs Pistons
Last Thursday, Toyota Center was blessed with our presence for the regular season NBA game # 35 of the Houston Rockets. This was our first instance of watching a game live - unlike our previous experiences which were limited to the idiot box.
Zooming past the notorious Houston traffic, to our surprise we managed to reach the venue early and finding the perfect parking spot was our next priority. To accomplish this, while manuevering the one way streets in downtown, a BMW whizzed pass our Altima and this nice, sweet lady popped her head out and offered an official parking tag saying that she had one too many. Our parking woes were solved and we were parked in the official parking lot, just an escalator's ride away from our destination.
The atmosphere inside was electrifying. A lot of crowd was of Asian descent. This could be attributed to Yao Ming of Bejing, China. This 7'6" tall, taller,tallest player of NBA plays for our home team.
" Go Rockets "
The game started with Houston leading initially and the lead gradually going southward for the rest of the three quarters. With 'our strong cheering' and presence Houston managed to maintain its nerve finally.
The final score read 91-85 in favor of Rockets.
Hoping to see them again during the playoffs....
