We took Cora to her - and our - first L.A. Lakers game Sunday, watching them fall to the Phoenix Suns in the first round of the NBA playoffs. What a great atmosphere, such a cool experience! I've always wanted to go to a Lakers game, but not badly enough to pay the high prices. (And, of course, we're baseball and footie people more than any other sport...)On Friday, after a very long work week, Stace was given tickets to the game from his boss. His work's seats are really good, in a section with a special entrance, special parking and waiters taking your food orders and serving you.
It was cool seeing Kobe Bryant in person - along with former Laker greats Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who were there for the game, and stars Jack Black, Jeremy Piven and Jack Nicholson. Nicholson, who's been a season ticket holder forever, can be (barely) seen in the action photo in the front row, to the right of the purple advertising board/table, with the dark shades.We think Cora enjoyed it - she wore a purple gingham dress, so she looked the part of a little fan, and she definitely liked looking at all the lights. She also managed to take a nap on Grandpa's lap.
