I know there was talk of it for game three but it didn't follow through. Any chance of this happening tonight?

I'd do it. Spurs fans, gitwitit! Black out and return the favor to the Suns players by booing on every possession.

It only happens in other arenas because the teams organize it and hand out shirts at the door. The Spurs don't do it for some reason.

I don't think anybody should wear black to this game. Too much irony in play.

I imagine the fans would act the same if circumstances were reversed.

I'm sorry... is an unwashed manu jersey with a nacho cheese stain circa 2004 the correct attire to a spurs game.

Get over yourself.

People in the upper deck come on a whim...

I pay about 6 mortgage payments a year to sit where I do EVERY FREAKING GAME ... a SIGNIFICANT percentage of my yearly income and you are going to bust my balls because I wear khakis and bathe every day?

FUCK YOU.

I only wish I could pay a significant amount of my income to go to any spurs game I wanted to, in a 2004 Manu jersey, in a black t-shirt, in my khakis, or even naked. I would be there. Whatever. We're all Spurs fans, no matter where you're sitting. Section 1 Row 1 Seat 1 or Section 225 Row 25 seat 35. Or even sitting on a ratty couch with rabbit ears with a fuzzy reception hoping to get a bit of Bill Walon's commentary. Get over it.

I wear my Black Spurs T-Shirts at every Spurs game that I, unfortunately, have to watch from home instead of the AT&T Center. I have a collection dating back, but my favorite is the 2003 Champion Shirt - it has the entire playoff series scores on back.

GO SPURS GO :flag: :flag: :flag:

I don't think they'll do a black out. Even that woman from the morning news on new 4Woai said that they should black out the arena. Word is out...but the Spurs' management isn't listening. I guess they don't want the electricity flowing inside the AT&T Center. I guess they'll stick to their "Ya'll Ready For This" theme.

I'd be willing to bet that pretty much everyone owns at least one black t-shirt, dress shirt or blouse. And in the very rare instance one doesn't, you can get a black Spurs tshirt at HEB for $9.99 or a black Hanes undershirt at Walmart for about $5.

Why is it so difficult for fans to show some kind of unity without having to be bribed with free shit?

I was told that the Spurs would never do a "white out' because white is a sign of surrender.

I was talking to this with an associate who works in the arena- she is the one who told me.

Actually- I have been told on more than one occasion that the Spurs have a greater percentage of their season tickets held by individuals and family purchasers than the average NBA team. That means that as compared to the average NBA team- the Spurs have a greater percentage of people with season tickets who are paying to be there out of their own pocket (as opposed to corporate accounts). I will never understand the anger toward those people whose money really does enable a city to support a team financially through their season ticket purchases. Plus, certain seats had a buy-in, in addition to the ticket cost. People with season tickets make an investment in the entire season- as opposed to choosing certain games- and yet somehow they are worse fans??

Sec24Row7
05-18-2007, 02:28 PM
Yep...

Because I pay more for my ticket (and the 44 like it for pre and regular season) than someone in the nosebleeds, he is allowed to bash me for being less of a fan.

People like that are just wrong.
I would buy season tickets but just can't afford them.
Plus, I really not into big crowds that much.
I don't like the nosebleed seats because they seem so high and somehow I have developed a fear of heights. I have gone to the Tower and I can't look out or down because of the feeling I'll fall, so I stay as close to wall as possible.

When I was little I lived out in Leon Springs which was the COUNTRY back then...

I used to have to beg my mother to take me to games... my father HATES basketball and still taunts me when the spurs lose...I can't have a basketball game on the TV if he is going to stay in the room...

I didn't get to go to many... maybe one every two years because it was a pretty long drive for her.

Only place I ever sat in Hemisphere was obstructed view... and the only place I ever sat at the Alamodome was close to the curtain or in the upper deck.

Once I finally got a job and started making money on my own the first thing I did was get my Spurs tickets...

The Spurs owner should definitely purchase the black t-shirts and hand them out at the door. Hell, it's not like he's not making a killing already with the price of the tickets. AND, he can write it off on his income tax.

The Golden State Warriors owner handed out free gold shirts to all of the fans when they played the Mavwrecks. Worked like a charm too !!
