11.16.05 Nuggets, We Lose But Another Great Night

[Doug Loudenback]

Ok. So, we lost, 81-91, before 18,442 frantic fans. All still had a great time, at least I did. I'm posting "non-Bee" pics here, but my more better Bee pics are being posted in the Bee Pics area after this is done.

For my complete posting of Hornets pics I've taken and decided were worthy of posting, go to http://www.dougloudenback.com/hornets/HornetsPics.htm

Game Begins ... Star Spangled Banner by parts of the Watonga & another city's band, from Western Oklahoma:



Fans were plentiful and having a raucous good time ...



















The Hornets were very much into the game tonight, but they just couldn't seem to find that special something to move them past the hump that it takes to win ... it was a good game, but lots of bad shots were taken, even though the game was closely played for the most part. Here's some game action ...











But, the best pics I took tonight were of the Bees ... see the Bees forum here, for them babies!

Were you in section 111?

[Doug Loudenback]

Yeah, Row ZZ Seat 9, or something like that.

Last row before the railing? You were probably a couple rows right in front of me. I was row N (behind the railing) seat 9.

[Doug Loudenback]

Well ... I'm not sure w/o looking at my ticket ... when I get home, I'll be definite about the seat ... generally, I was 15-20 or so rows UP from where the close-up Bee pics were taken, slightly to the left of the hoop.

Ok, here's the correct location:

I was in Section 111, Row XX, Seat 9. How does that compare to were you were?

Do you believe this?? I had a friend call me last night to give me two tix 111 DD - I didn't catch the call ( ringer wasn't working) aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhggggggggggg

I'm so depressed.

I'm in 111, Row N seat 9. I imagine you were only three or so rows in front of me. I noticed that you mentioned buying a Hornets hat, were you wearing one at the game?

Yup. I was the old short fat geezer wearing the Hornets cap who was sneaking down to the Bees area to take pics!

Hey, hey!! I think I saw you! If you're the same one I was thinking of, you were on the last row before the railing (railing would have been behind you). I do believe you were possibly up and dancing around at some point?


I was one row in front of the guys that had that horn deal they were yelling through.

[Doug Loudenback]

Well... there was no railing in the row in front of me and I don't recall a railing behind me ... but I really wasn't paying attention to such things ... but, as for dancing, could have been ... I do get caught up in the moment, from time to time!

I had the image drawer (in the peripheral corridor) draw me a "ME" pic ... my plan is to scan it and make it my new avatar ... haven't yet ... not that it's that great a facsimile ... but this is me:

, but of course, you don't get the big belly and/the Hornets cap!

Yep, I recognize you! Three rows in front of me, I do believe. I wish I would have known that was you, I would have said hi.

[Doug Loudenback]

Great! Since you know what I look like, and I don't know the reverse, please let me know next time we're within eyesight and we'll get acquainted!
