We have 57 tickets sold at this point for the 12/28 Kings/Nuggets game, and we give up our hold on the remaining tickets tomorrow. Last chance, here's the link to the original post, which contains the link to the ticket purchase site.

Don't miss out if you have the means to be there. $40.50 seats for $25.50, a group photo after the game - it should be an awesome, awesome time. 

Real quick note here regarding flagging comments (as opposed to responding to them). I have been incredibly impressed with the overall quality of the comments and commentary here as the site continues to grow and grow, That said, there are always going to be a few folks who are going to miss the mark when it comes to the basic premise of this site.

"Which one of you nuts has got any guts?" section8 leads his minions out of the bar and to their seats just prior to the start of the Kings-Nuggets game on 12/28.

32 seats have been sold as of this afternoon. The good news is that I get my seat deposit back. The bad news is that I crowed that we could fill at least 50 seats based on the polls that you lying bastards participated in.

Come on, people. Don't you remember how J.R. Smith dissed us last year when he was hotter than a $2 pistol and raining 3's all over us? Don't you loathe Kenyon Martin? Wouldn't you like to be there in person to watch Andres Nocioni annoy the hell out of Carmelo Anthony, to watch Sergio Rodriguez outplay Ty Lawson off the bench? to watch Tyreke Evans and Chauncey Billups trade paint?

You only have a few more days to book your tickets. The linkage and the instructions can be found in the original post, which you can link to here. Vote early and vote often.

So are you coming? Or are you yellow? (Note - threat of being called yellow applies only to local residents.)

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE - Payday must have struck, as we are now approaching 50 tickets sold.

Hey, how you doin'?

As recently as a couple of months ago, our confidence in Beno Udrih was less than overwhelming. He was inducted into the MLE hall of shame. He was untradeable, a waste of someone else’s minutes, an albatross.

Today? Amongst point guards logging 30 minutes per game or more, Beno Udrih ranks 11^th in PER, in between Brandon Jennings and Gilbert Arenas (Tyreke Evans currently sits at #7). Udrih sports a true shooting percentage of better than 58% (that is Kevin Martin territory), and his assist to turnover ratio is 2.3 to 1. And Udrih has done this coming off the bench, where he had rarely been productive prior to now.

The question is, how far has Udrih come in two months? Has he graduated from untradeable (as in, no one will take him) to untradeable (as in, we don’t want to part with this guy)?

(Use of Simpsons characters for post - check)

You asked for it, and we listened. Actually, Tom ignored you, G used the "I live out of state" excuse, and rbiegler has not been heard from since his date with Matt Snell's daughter (use of old and random non-reference - check). But I listened. Kind of. If you forget about the fact that I was no help as it pertained to the Wizards game. And I pretty much ignored everyone's input. And I commandeered seats in section 214 so that I can park in my usual and familiar area. So we kind of listened. A little. But not really.

It will be the Denver Nuggets game on Monday, December 28th, and we are shooting for the half court view seats, $25.50. More details to follow on the evening, how to get your tickets, perks, etc. We hope to have the 411 out in the next day or two. Stay tuned -

UPDATE - I should have the next chapter up later this evening or tomorrow morning. It should include a link to purchase and print tickets (or set them up at will call), along with all of the other details. Let's rock the casbah!
