I don't think I told anyone here, but I dreamt some time ago that I traveled to AZ and got to a game and meet you guys.
Never mind that our coach in my dreams was Leandro Barbosa.

I used to have semi-regular dreams that I played for the Suns. I was a 14-15th man that would go out there and try and hit a few shots in blowouts. Forget that I am not quote 6 foot tall, but I played PF. It has been a few years since I had that dream.

I was close to buying tickets to fly out, but with a 6-month old son (along with 2 other kids), I won't be making it this finals run. Would anyone be interested in a zoom call before/after one of the games? Almost like the podcast with espo, only more relevant and with people I would actually want to hear from.

LOL. This is the exact way I feel about that show. I can't listen to it.

Wish I could join you guys... sitting from 14 time zones away makes that kind of tough.
No excuses! :D

That would be fun. I’m leaving in a little over 2 hours for the game. Hoping to purchase a Booker Valley jersey at the team shop. Wearing my 21 conference champion shirt for now that my mom got for all of us. The same one the Suns wore after clinching the WCF. Was going to wear my old-style Booker jersey but don’t want to have to carry it around if I’m able to get the Valley jersey. Plus, I’m assuming they’ll have tshirts waiting for us at the game.

Let’s do this! Go Suns!!!

If it weren't for COVID and politics, I'd probably be out there in time for the parade (fingers crossed).

But instead, I'm still waiting to be vaccinated while the Delta variant introduces itself to the local population. Fun times.

My plan is to be out there in January and actually attend a Suns game for the first time in probably a decade.

Sounds like a great time! Yell for me too.

I was at game 7 of the World Series when the Diamondbacks won back in the day. That was so fun. And loud!! I was hoarse for 3 days.

I don't think you have to be a resident to get a vaccine in the states. So if you did come out for the Finals, you could go back fully vaccinated.

I'm still a resident. It's the traveling 20ish hours while unvaccinated that I'm not interested in.

And that still wouldn't be the strangest thing I've seen on a flight crossing the Pacific.

I STILL haven't been further than Hawaii going that way. But when we were at 50,000 feet, I had a flight attendant tell a wife that her husband was dead. Turns out he wasn't, he just passed out in his seat. I just can't imagine the roller coaster of emotion that woman went through on the flight to her honeymoon.

I'd bet everything it was an American based airline. Worst service in the industry.

I used to think that until I switched to United for a few years. They are in an eternal battle for the shittiest service.

Worst service in the industry and it's not even close .. Like everything they teach you in business school about customer service / always focus on the customer etc is not only ignored, it's actively campaigned against.

I heard a rumour about American Airlines (I think it was) who would record who complained about a flying experience and then blacklist them as a result.

Sorry, my wording was confusing. I mean any airline based out of America, not exclusively American Airlines.
