Aaron Alicia: Suns Adventure

We went to the Suns game on January 9th. It was quite an interesting evening. My sister-in-law Sarah already blogged the story so I am actually going to steal the story from her blog instead of re-typing it all and I'll add my flavor to it. Thanks Sarah for being more on top of things!!

We went to eat out at Texas Roadhouse before the game. Great food as usual. Great company as always. We were getting into our car and a homeless man walks up to Aaron and asks him for some money to go to a pharmacy to get something for a spider bite. Aaron then asks if he could see the bite. The bum then tells us it is on his butt.........OK............gross. Brenton hands Aaron a dollar and Aaron proceeds to give it to him. This guy was so excited that we gave him a dollar that he started dancing and singing. Aaron then tells him that if he did that at first he would've given him five dollars and if he would've shown him his spider bite he would have given him $10. Then Aaron says I have a friend in the car that really wants to see the bite, and rolls the window down on Sarah's side. This guy starts taking off his pants. So, of course at that point we all start saying "just kidding, don't do it!" So he didn't and as we drove off he was dancing and singing his little dance. We should have taken that moment as premonition for the rest of the night.

We got to the game and we were all so excited for our 14th row tickets! We start walking to them and came out onto the upper level. Sarah and I were together and we were confused because we were so sure we were supposed to be down on the lower level. So close that we could smell Shaq. Ah no. We asked the security lady were our seats were and she told us the very, very top of the whole stadium. So not 14th row from the court, 14th row from the upper level. Brenton and Aaron get there and we all start laughing because it was Carly that found the tickets for his mom and see was so excited to tell them when they opened them that they were 14th row. So we texted her pictures and told her where we were sitting.

Then a bunch of drunk people came and sat right in front of us. They were so wasted already and the game hadn't even started. They were cussing up slurred storms and were asking Sarah and I if we wanted our faces painted (with pics male genitalia). One of them actually took the group picture of us. They were so gross and so drunk. Luckily at halftime they left and never came back. Oh but that wasn't the end of our exciting night.

In between the 3rd and 4th period they do pep boosters. The dancers come out the cheerleaders, and pep squad are out on the court keeping the crowd going. Well, Aaron has some cousins that are on the pep squad and was taking pictures of them with the new camera we got for Christmas. Then the period started and this lady came up and asked Aaron to come with her and told him he was in trouble, and then asked him to bring his camera. The three of us sat there looking at each other with total confusion. What did Aaron do? He came back and informs us that a security guard was accusing him of taking videos with his camera and wanted to see them. Aaron kept informing her that he'd only taken pictures, not videos. She didn't believe him and kept accusing him. Finally she told him to go back to his seat and that she would keep an eye on him.

The game was pretty much over. The suns were winning by a lot so we decided to leave. Aaron decides he wants to complain about the security guard (Aaron is not normally a complainer. He will eat a raw steak at a restaurant without complaining, but this lady was pretty rude.) So we went down to the guest relations office and filed a complaint. We got $20 worth of coupons to Jack-in-the-Box , Sports Chalet and Taco Bell.

So to end our very adventurous night, we stopped and let the Suns buy us shakes from Jack-in-the-Box:)

Here are some pics from my new camera
