Oklahoma City Thunder’s Season Opener
With all of the news and hype surrounding our first opening game of the 2008-2009 NBA season there is a lot of information to take in. For starters, some great news I have heard is that the Bricktown Parking Garage and BPI Parking lot will have free parking during the Oklahoma City Thunder game tomorrow, Oct. 29. Awesome of them to do that for OKC Thunder fans. The reason they mentioned they were doing it is that they want to make sure fans are aware that in the future their parking will never be more than $5.
As of 5:00PM today there were still 200 tickets available to be purchased by Oklahoma City Thunder Fans. Tickets start at just $10 for the upper levels. People have spent the past few months making videos, music and writing about their favorite OKC Thunder basketball player whether it be Kevin Durrant, Jeff Green or Joe Smith. People are excited about Oklahoma City being a big league team and can’t wait for the tip off tomorrow.
The big talk is Thunder Alley and the near block party atmosphere that will be happening tomorrow. Downtown Oklahoma City in around the Ford Center and throughout Bricktown will be one giant party for Oklahoma City Thunder fans with everyone celebrating this historic event for the OKC Thunder Basketball team.
The Oklahoma City Thunder may have had a rough preseason with a 1-6 preseason score. However, there is still a lot of enthusiasm for OKC to do well in the coming NBA season. Since we took veterans Desmond Mason and Joe Smith in August there is a lot of excitement that we will have some much needed toughness, defense , skill and leadership to the team. Something that the Seattle Sonics didn’t have much of last year. With the new veteran leadership I belive we can have an excellent first season.
