Sparks, Friends, and Screaming

It was fun to be able to take Kristi, Jon and my parents to a Sparks game down at the Staples Center. We were lucky enough to get seats in front of 2 or 3 screaming little girls, who I'm sure were just there to cheer and don't really care about basketball. Although I commend them for their diligence and team spirit, they really need to practice cheering with everyone else. So every time it gets really noisy or the yells of "defense!" are off, please know that it is them, and not us. The Sparks won this game 88-72 edit by David: final score was 82-77, although it was a close back and forth game the whole time. We took a little walk through LA Live afterward. We hung out over at the Toyota thing you see at the end. They had a decked out Sienna van in there with reclining middle seats, complete with footrests. It had video screens in front and back where they were playing the "Swagger Wagon" video (youtube it if you haven't seen it). The seats in back fold down into the ground with the touch of a button. It was a pretty sweet van, I have to admit. All in all, it was a great night!
