I'm so pumped about the playoffs that I just want to talk spurs non stop, so I was wondering what's the best spurs game y'all have been to and why?

Mine is game 7 of the 2005 NBA Finals, I remember my Dad calling me early that day saying he got tickets for me and my family. We were way up in the nosebleeds but I didn't care, the atmosphere in that building was electric and the noise was so loud that you couldn't hear the person next to you even if you were screaming. then watching the spurs persevere through that epic series was insane. I'll never forget that moment, it's something I will tell my kids about, my grand kids about and hopefully my great grand kids about.

GO SPURS GO. I fully believe we're getting number 5 this year

Spurs vs Hawks when Elliott came back from kidney surgery in 2000! I think it was my first or 2nd game ever, I was like 6 and I knew how badass that was even then.

Unfortunately as a Spurs fan in Florida I've never been to the AT&T Center to watch them play. Anyway my brother, my dad and I used to make an annual trip to Orlando for the one game of the year they were there.

Well, my first time seeing my favorite team in person was fantastic. You can't even describe how you feel seeing all these guys in person after watching them on TV for so many years. Felt like a surreal dream to me. It was 2007, and the three of us were some of the only Spurs fans in the building.

I remember the Spurs having a decent lead in the fourth, until Orlando went on a big run. The Spurs tried to get the lead back, but Tony Parker was blocked emphatically on consecutive possessions. The game was tied with .8 seconds left. I fully was expecting overtime, until this happened:

I remember everyone going insane and we were the only people who stayed in our seats with our jaws dropped. I was wearing a Tim Duncan jersey, and I remember getting yapped at the entire way out by cocky Magic fans. :lolRegardless of the result, it was still the best NBA game I ever attended. I'll never forget it.

I was at the same game (Game 7 of the NBA finals). That was crazy. I was supposed to come home the next day, but we stayed out so long with the other fans partying that I didn't get to bed before 9am, so I stayed an extra day in SA.

good times... good times.

My first game I ever went to, Spurs vs Hornets in 95, I remember it was the first game Doc Rivers played since the trade/signing (?) at the time, Alonzo got hurt early on, and then this happened..

As far as OP, being at Game 7 of the Finals in San Antone is hard to beat, irregardless of where those seats were.

That game.... that was the game that pushed me to evolve from a Spurs fan, to a die hard Spurs fan. I remember Manu's and1 against Shaq... he was beast mode that night.

No TP also if I remember correctly...? Maybe

Regular Season:

Home: Roger Mason's and 1 vs Lakers in 09, after Kobe hit a late game 3

Road: Spurs winning in Houston last year, and chanting "Go Spurs Go" with hundreds of other Spurs fans in the Toyota Center

Playoffs: Gary Neal's 3 last year to send it to OT, and Game 3 & 4 vs Dallas in the 2010 playoffs, that crowd was probably one of the loudest crowds I ever been apart of. My ears were ringing after the game.

Finals: Game 6 of the 03 Finals...Can always say I saw the Spurs win a championship, I thought it was going to game 7 for a second, but Jackson saved our ass.

Mine was the year we traveled to New Orleans for a game 7 a few years ago. I don't remember exactly what year it was, but I remember the whole experience very vividly. My friend and I just decided on a whim to drive all the way up there to watch the game in person...since he has friends he knows in Louisiana and we'd have a place to stay. The game itself was very exciting, the air was electric...every single seat had a white Hornets playoff shirt to whiteout the building. I remember Horry being pretty clutch once again and we started to blow them out in the 3rd...but they made a furious comeback and even had a chance for the lead with less than a minute on a Pargo three...which he luckily missed. Manu would then seal the game with a couple of FT's.

I really haven't experienced anything like that, a road playoff game in a hostile atmosphere...It was dead silent and my friend and I were ecstatic looking around for the occasional Spurs fan to high-five. Good times.
