Here’s why I’d rather see a 5th grade girls basketball game than any NBA Game.
1. Better Parking. You’ll never hear anyone say, “Okay, remember everyone…we’re in zone E on parking deck level 5.” That’s after you dished out $10 for a parking pass.
2. Every seat is a courtside seat. You don’t have to be Spike Lee or Jack Nicholson to get good seating.
3. Cheaper seats…and snacks. Most games are free and you’ll never pay $5 for a hot dog at a 5th grade game.
4. No worries about players on steroids. Those girls are good because they’re good.
5. More exciting scores. At a 5th grade game, the score rarely tops 30 points making each basket much more exciting.
6. No worries about teams and players moving to another city. You pretty much know that little Abigail isn’t going to be sold to Seattle.
7. No getting hit with t-shirts. Does anyone else have a fear of being hit with a t-shirt gun?
8. Names are easier to pronounce. – Instead of names like Yao Ming, Didier Ilunga-Mbenga and Zydrunas Ilgauskas, you have Megan, Katie and Ashley.
9. Sober fans. You know you’re not going to get splashed with beer when your team makes it at the buzzer.
10. The players actually have fun!
