Around SBN: Two Minutes Of Thunder Basketball Wins The Game

View from My Seats: USOC Qualifying RBNY vs. Colorado

So I managed to score some pretty good seats for the final game of USOC qualifying vs. Colorado. Section 128, Row 1 seats 1 and 2. And thanks to it being the USOC the tickes were only $15 a piece. This is after getting tickets in Row 4 of Section 126 for the USOC game vs. Philly. Really, more poeple should go to those games, it's such a great deal and great seats you other wise wouldn't be able to get are readily available.

Metro won 3-0 on a brace from Wally and one from Connor Chinn. It was a great game and a terrific atmosphere.

Pictures of the seats after the jump.

Des McAleenan warming up Bouna Time! (SUNY Albany Represent!) and Sutton prior to the game. I really like that they kept Des around. Great keeper coach.

Right before the start. Irving Garcia had one hell of a game on the wing.

Chris Albright played the full 90. Hopefully he can become a solid contributor on this team before long.

ESC was there not quite in full force but they were vocal and made the game a great atmosphere.

The free kick following Danny Earls' Red Card.

 

So it was a great night at the RBA. I got to meet Joel Lindpere, had front row seats and all for the low low price of $15 a seat. Seriously people, take advantage of the USOC when you can. I wish I could but since I am moving to St. Paul, Minnesota in 4 weeks I won't be able to.
