SO… i am the “super loud obnoxious fan” type, my son is more reserved & low key but enjoys watching me act a fool. what section would be best for a rowdy (but not offensive) dad taking his kid to his first real basketball game not held in a middle school gym? i want to be close enough to the action where he can get the full experience but not so deep that he feels he has to stand & scream all game. definitely dont want to be near any bougie sitters who like to watch their live basketball in peace & quiet. basically does anyone have any recommendations on a loud but not intense section where we can stand & scream when appropriate but still sit down & enjoy a hot dog & explain the game to my son. any suggestions?

If you get there early enough you can get the first row behind the basket. We usually do club seats but did the gen ad one night and it really wasn’t bad at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

79 Bull Posted February 26 Group: TBP Subscriber III Topic Count: 686 Content Count: 7,657 Reputation: 1,218 Days Won: 6 Joined: 07/10/2003 Share Posted February 26 Buy general admission tickets, get there early and sit in the last row of section 106, 107 or 108. You can stand the entire game if you'd like. I do it often. If you can sit in the last row under the DJ, you're golden. Your kid will love it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antagonist To get seats in that row, I would definitely walk in that section by 6:15-6:25 at the latest to be safe. Have fun! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeB Posted February 27 Group: Member Topic Count: 962 Content Count: 9,762 Reputation: 592 Days Won: 9 Joined: 08/05/2005 Share Posted February 27 Get GA seats, definitely the most bang for your buck. I think the only area that stands the entire time is the Student Section which will be directly opposite of that GA section. I've been to about 7 games this year and it is a fun time with this team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
