Around 9am yesterday, Rach texted to ask if I wanted to go to the Thunder game... to quote David Rose, "That's a real quick yes!!"
She was able to order last-minute tickets for us, and we got edge seats in Section 111! I finished around 3 covering A's lengthy court docket, then got ready and headed to Rachael's to ride with them to the game (it started at 7:30, but we arrived around 5:40 with high hopes for J&K to get autographs and/or meet some of the players).

Knowing we had lower seats, I suggested Rach make a cool poster so we could get on TV... so they worked hard making these signs, then were immediately told they couldn't bring them into the arena - lamesauce!!
(They have a table set up where you can make signs, but they have to be 11x17 or smaller).
Whilst J was waiting on the spurs players, Kyndal and I went to get her a Thunder hat and try (unsuccessfully) to see some of her favorite players...
Jaceman got three autographs from the Spurs - Carter Bryant, Kelton Johnson, and De'Aron Fox - so yay for that! (He's a Wemby fan and wore a Spurs shirt - he was afraid he would be bullied, but there were lots of Spurs fans there, including two younger boys right in front of us who were entertaining and fun)!
Me and K-Faith ran into her friend and VB teammate, Olivia!!
I was between Kyndal and an adult guy who was a loud and enthusiastic fan - we very much enjoyed his commentary, however colorful it may have been! lol
Jace had more fun early in the game - the Spurs were ahead most of the first quarter and part of the second, but the Thunder came in strong after that!
The nuns memes and costumes were entertaining!
Go OKC!! This makes me happy - hopefully we can add a few more banners this year!
Giant Rumble covered in confetti after the win!
We waited around trying to get autographs (or a Tik-Tok dance for K) after the game, so they were able to reclaim their signs with no crowded line as we walked out! I made us stop for one more pic by this wall!
"McCain is COOKING, bro!" -Kyndal Faith
He got to start this game and had his best game of the season - she pays attention to sports, and he's her new favorite player this year - and she has the jersey and two posters to prove it! =)
We stopped by Cain's and McDonald's (of course) on our way back to Rachael's... J&K's commentary and sports rivalry was entertaining for me! ...After a few moments of silence while they were both looking at their phones, Kyndal chimed in, "Bro, I look so good in hats!" and it was the funniest thing!!
So now the Thunder is up 3 to 2, and only need one more win against the Spurs to become the Western Conference champs and move into the finals against NY. Here's hoping that happens on Thursday!
Mom and Dad preferred to watch from home, but we had a great time being there for it live!!
Yay, Thunder! Yay, family fun!!
