An Awesome Date Night

Last week Alan won tickets from work to the WNBA finals second game for Friday night Oct. 3rd, we were thrilled! Our friends the smiths were nice enough to watch Luke for us, for probably one of the longest times we have ever left him. The San Antonio's team is named the Silver Stars and they played the Detroit shock. The game started at 6:30 and we arrived at about 6:10 at the AT&T center. We had free parking and they had a special section for those that had box seating, so we got to park basically right next to the building. We took a private stair way to our seats and USAA's suite. Alan's work owns a suite were they had food spread out for us. There isn't a view of the court from the suite, but they had a couch seating area with a big screen TV and then a table and chairs with an other big screen TV. Just out side the suite was a hall to our seats. Our seats were amazing, we sat on the same side as the teams seats, we were so close and our seats were leather with a nice back rest and a ledge in front of us so we could bring our food out. Alan and I aren't very familiar with WNBA teams or with the WNBA , but of course we got caught up in the game and started sheering for the Stars like we had been fans forever. The Silver Stars end up losing that night, they had lost the previous night, the Shock actual swept them and won the entire finals, but Alan and I still had great night. I have posted lots of pictures and some videos, so enjoy. Oh and in one of the videos you'll see fire shooting up we were close enough to the court that we could actually feel the heat from the fire.

Wow! What a fun thing to win! It looks like you guys had lots of fun. My favorite part would have been the food,I hope it was really good! Also, super nice that you got somebody to babysit Luke for you.
