ASCE Orange County, Los Angeles and San Bernardino-Riverside YMFs Clippers Game Outing


By Jerusalem V. Verano

On Sunday, March 15th, 2015 the ASCE Orange County, Los Angeles, and San Bernardino – Riverside YMF’s got together to watch the LA Clippers play the Houston Rockets at Staples Center, in Los Angeles.

 

Ticket stub for the LA Clippers vs. Houston Rockets game at Staples Center. Tip-off at 12:30 p.m.
 

Prior to the game our ticket included an on court group photo. This was a special experience as we were ushered in through the back halls of Staples Center! Although we were not set to play in the game that day we did get a sense for what a player goes through as they walk onto the Basketball court.

Waiting in the Staples Center Tunnels for our turn to walk on to the basketball court for a group photo!

After the group photo we moved to our seats to watch the game. Our seats were in Section 332. Here was our view:

The game was fun to watch and competitive with the game being decided at the very last minute. Unfortunately, the Rockets edged the Clippers by only two points that day to win 100 (Rockets) to 98 (Clippers)! Still, everyone had a great time.

Special thank you to the ASCE YMF’s for creating the event.
