Last week I made a post asking for advice on a few things and you guys were all so considerate and welcoming. Tons of great info and with the help of the search function I was able to do some research and get some relatively good seats for the price (upper corners).
Let me tell you, what an experience. I’m from Canada and the closest NBA team is 1500 miles away. I’ve been to a few games in my time (LA, PHX, TOR) but Barclays was rocking!!
I Love the Brooklyn Vibe with 90s hip hop and I am so glad you guys embrace Jay Z and Biggie. I saw the banners next to the Canadian flag lol.
I am so amazed by your city and I wish I had more time. I’ll be back, I didn’t even get to do anything besides the game. You all had some great suggestions for Pizza and Fried Chicken and I was unable to do either (Sad).
Except for Chicken Fingers at Barclays but that doesn’t count.. I was so overwhelmed I just hopped in a line and got something. Lol
I under estimated how busy and crazy Brooklyn is but I loved every second of it.
Even though you hear how insane it is, you don’t know until you get thrown into it. We were staying in New Jersey (For work) and I guess I should have asked how the drive is from NJ to Brooklyn lol
We should have just Ubered it. After the white knuckle drive (Our busiest roads are 2 lanes and you can get anywhere in the city within 25 minutes Lol) and the attempt to find parking. We were regretting it. BUT, I think everyone needs to experience it just once. We did find parking, and it was 75% of the cost of taking an uber…. Maybe the most impressive thing I saw that night was how this parking garage was able to Tetris in 60+ cars into a space that looked like it could fit 20.
Anyways I’m rambling. I’ll be back. Thank you all, I love your city and most of it I saw from a distance. You are all very lucky to be a part of such a special place.
– Your new Canadian friend (Nets are now my second favourite team) 🙂
