JIMMER!!!

We decided (with a little coaxing from Megan) to go to a Sixers game this week because they were playing the Kings, Jimmer's NBA team. We bought some seats pretty high up but once we got inside, some PR people were giving out comp tickets that were lower down because the turnout was not huge. Bonus. The Sixers played so well and the Kings....well....they pretty much stunk. But it was fun to see our Jimmer play. He made the first points of the game and we got to see him sink a three pointer. Here are a few shots from the game.

Evan and Meg in our original "up high" seats.

The warm up shots....also from our high seats

Down close, now. Jimmer with the ball.....Check out the people in the crowd behind him with the purple shirts that spell out JIMMER. I guess he has fans everywhere he goes!

The confetti blast at the end of the game. Pretty impressive!! Evan filled both his pockets with the pieces.

True blue fans

...and the final score. The good news is that since the Sixers scored over 100 points, we got to take our tickets to McDonalds the next day and get free Big Macs. :)
