GO LAKERS!

So Scott and I are big Lakers fans. We've been watching all the games and it is so fun to really get into it and scream and cheer wearing our Bryant jerseys (though I wish I had an Ariza jersey. that guy's a stud).

A couple of weeks ago, our friends Steve and Jen told us they could get us tickets for the Lakers vs. Jazz game. So of course we went! We drove down to Utah and met Steve and Jen for the game. We all sported the colors and it was hysterical walking into the stadium surrounded by the Jazz fans.

It was a little crazy. But I was surprised at how many Lakers fans were there! It was awesome. Our seats were located next to other Lakers fans so we felt a bit more safe. (except for the one drunk guy in front of us. haha. lots of high fives were given by that guy.)

All four of us were being super loud and annoying and I was loving it! Thank heavens we won. It was a blowout. But still, I didn't want to walk back to the car a loser. During the game we chanted, "We want tacos!" and the oh-so-occasional "Boozer sucks!" and "Pig-face!" haha. good times.

Leaving the stadium we saw quite a few fights and arguments. We were cussed at, etc. Scott had to pull me out of the way as a fight erupted right next to me. scary.

We parked in the Gateway parking structure and had to take the elevator down. So here was Scott and I crammed into this elevator, decked out in Lakers jerseys, amid a sea of hostile Jazz fans. It was dead silent.

Then this lady who had been shopping at the Gateway spoke up, "So....Do I dare ask who won?"

(All eyes on Scott and I)

"Maybe not with just us in here." I squeeked out.

Everyone started laughing. It was pretty funny. But I could just imagine Scott and I getting pummeled to death in an elevator by Jazz fans. That's not the way I want to go.

All in all, we had a blast. And the Lakers have continued to do us proud. We are in the semi-finals and up 2-1 against the Nuggets.

Thanks Scott for being a Lakers fan with me. I have so much fun with you! Go Lakers!
