Roll call for the home opener

Section 204 Row T

Season Ticket Holder. Kinda pissed that the face on these is & CLE, OKC, etc is 4x what the rest of the games are. Then again, it's funny that so many STH bought into the team's hype & BS & bought massive blocks of these things for opening night. Pretty smart salesmanship. They wouldn't have sold them all for half that on the open market.

I just hope those STH are willing to cut their losses & sell all the tickets. Otherwise there's gonna be several thousand empty seats in TWCA on opening night. People aren't gonna pay $70-150 to sit in the nosebleeds on a game during the middle of the week.

We should arrange a Huddle Hornets pregame meet up outside twca. I'm sure the atmosphere will already be festive.

I think roaring was trying to put something together with a bar but he's still working on it. I know me and my buddy are planning on taking a cab down town at about 230 or so

Itll be more hectic outside before the game than during the actually game, unfortunately. Such is today's youth & social media.

Young folks are more interested in partying & "pregaming" & hanging around with their friends & wearing cool purple/real retro gear than the actual basketball game itself. During the game the team store will be jam packed with people buying Hornets gear, people outside partying & coming in late, & half the people in their seat will be paying more attention to Facebook & Twitter on their phone than watching the actual game. No time to watch the game! Gotta post these selfies to IG!

It's gonna be a full house & great atmosphere, but people are really overhyping this. It's gonna be a letdown for those who think it's gonna be like 1991 all over again.

While I'm sure you've got most of that right, my hope is that the people actually buying the tickets are those who remember the glory days, and those people want to see the game.  I won't miss the introductions, I'm sure they will do some type of presentation thing before the game kicking off the new era of the Hornets.

Saw today that they're giving out 20k shirts that will resemble a tux.... That's pretty damn cool. Hopefully it's not littered with sponsors logos though. Also saw they're brining back some big name old Hornets. I know we've had some guys in there before but Id be shocked if we don't see LJ and Zo.

They brought back Air Hugo was at the last preseason game. But there's a ton of stuff left, & hopefully they've saved it for the opener.

I'm hoping they've saved a lot for the opener & really go all out. There's only gonna be one opener with bringing the team back, don't hold out.

Famous Hive "buzz" intro, Hugo, Aur Hugo, Super Hugo, Attendance banner, #13 Phills banner...

I'm sure they'll break out the killer intro & Hugo will be everywhere, but it'd be cool if they unveiled those old banners.

Muggsy, Zo, LJ, Rice, Baron... Hope they're all in the building...

Also hope they wear the Teal Charlotte alt uniform, although I'm sure they'll wear white.
