Maybe the Spurs should hold a "home" game in Galveston? :)

What is that all about? When I travel down there on business, I see a few Spurs bumper stickers and flags but never any Rockets stuff.

I saw the game on t.v. The crowd for the most part was rooting for the Spurs.
Obviously people there know what is up! = )

I went to the Spurs@Rockets/Laredo game in Oct 04.

VERY LITTLE Rockets gear to be seen.
LOTS of Spurs gear.

Rockets playing in San Antonio's backyard of Laredo, twice, is predatory marketing. :)

Last year was a home game for the Rockets also, I have a few friends that live in laredo, from what they have told me, Laredo is Spurs Crazy.

Yes I was really upset when I found out we were gonna be having a ROCKETS game instead of a Spurs game. Last year there were a few Rockets fans but they paled in comparison to the Spurs. The Rockets were even the home team! :huh
