You all know how the Everharts love to go to see college football and basketball games - but since our hotel is only a couple of blocks from the Space Needle and Seattle's Key Arena - we decided to go see the great LeBron James play. We did not have tickets but when did that ever stop us - there were plenty of tickets for sale outside. The Sonics are not winning - and also the area is having bad weather here - ice and snow storms have closed many schools in the state. Nancy landed 2 tickets way to early and we ended up in the arena 40 minutes before game time.
The first picture is from our purchased seats. After a quarter we moved down to court level behind the Cavs bench.
The big story for me was the women NBA official. I have not seen a women do an NBA game before and she did a great job. The second 2 pictures were taken from our "move-down" seats and they show the "lady official" and LeBron James. She would not take crap from anybody - she even overruled another official on an out of bounds call.
Oh yeah - James got 30 points - and Ray Allen got 22 points - and the game was tied after 3 quarters and the Sonics won 101- 96 - and we had a great time.
After the game - we stopped at the Five Points Cafe - for a beer and late snack - just like in Tamaqua. It was 11 PM local time - which would be 2 AM Tallahassee time. This was big time nightclubbing for Nancy and Harry.
