Jazz Game

Every year our boys receive Jazz tickets in their stocking. It has become a tradition that they love. We always look forward to going to the Jazz game as a family.

This year the Jazz were playing the Knicks. The last few years we have been to games against the Thunder and Dad and the boys love booing Russell Westbrook. They were a little disappointed they wouldn't have anyone to boo this year until Enes Kanter walked onto the court. He used to play for the Jazz, but after leaving said some pretty nasty things about the team. No one in Utah was happy about that. The whole stadium erupted in loud boos anytime Kanter touched the ball, and the Jazz kept him from scoring at all. Dad and the boys loved it!

The boys love going to sporting events! 

Every seat in the house is a good one.

The Jazz played well and there were some great highlights. The Jazz Bear showed up in our section and shot confetti at us. The boys thought it was amazing and even brought home some pieces of confetti as souvenirs. Gobert had more dunks that game than I've seen in awhile. Favors hit two 3-pointers in a row and I didn't even think he could shoot that far. He is Dax's favorite player so that was really exciting. Seth and I went to get popcorn and found out that everyone got a free popcorn and drink since we had Junior Jazz tickets, which made everyone happy except Mark. Luckily, Dax had given Mark some Jazz noise makers for Christmas so he was happy the whole game.

Dax did not want to take this picture with Mom.

Surprise Jazz Bear!

Seth and Dax LOVE popcorn! 

Go Jazz Go!

The best part was that the game started at 6:00, and even though we had to hustle to get there on time after eating at Red Robin on the way, we were able to get the kids home to bed a little after 9:00. It was a win for the Jazz and a win for the Ockeys. We can't wait to go next year!!

It was a great game!

Jazz win!
