Last night Jon and I went up to Salt Lake for the first Jazz home game of the season. It was noise-maker night, so everyone was given a loud, clacky thing that doubled as a sign. It was very, very loud inside of the Energy Solutions Arena… AND I’M STILL YELLING THIS MORNING!

Here is me being excited to be out of the house, on a date with my husband:

Yes, that picture is totally staged. See how there is no one around me cheering? That’s because they realize that there is nothing super-exciting about a timeout. Me on the other hand? I LOVE timeouts! WOOOO! I’m out of the house on a date!! And timeouts rule!!

Here is a picture of Jon being ticked off because the Jazz are sucking it up, big time:

Also, it’s possible that the girl with her feet propped up beside him had very smelly toes. The picture of Jon snarling is NOT staged. He really was irritated. Plus, the Jazz lost, so I also have pictures of Jon swearing, punching things, throwing his noise-maker at a panhandler, and kicking a statue of Karl Malone.

The two dudes sitting on the other side of me got drunk. The dude beside me kept swearing loudly, spitting as he yelled, and smacking his noise-maker right next to my ear. He was really into it. At one point he dropped the F-bomb at 110 decibels in my left ear and then turned to me, touched my arm tenderly and said with boozy breath, “Sorry, I meant to say ‘heck’.” And who says chivalry is dead? Nevertheless, I kind of hope they aren’t fellow season ticket holders…

    Had me totally cracking up. You are hilarious.

    Season tickets? I take it this means you may get to go out of house on a date again! Cool deal.

  2. I would have messed with the drunk people. You should say things like, “They’re not loosing, you’re looking at the score board wrong.” Or, “Our team is red, theirs is blue.”

    Speaking of colors when did Jazz colors become blue?
