GSOM Night 2: Come Get Some

by YaoButtaMing on Sep 6, 2007 9:46 PM PDT in Events Comment 14 comments

There's very little time left to purchase exclusive opening night tickets before the general public does. I was told that they go on sale to the general public in mid-September. Guess what, it's almost mid-September. We want to make this event HUGE and full of GSOMers. Join us and tell your friends, family, and coworkers to come out and take part in one of the greatest events at a Warrior game.

Had someone told me 8 months ago that I'd be sitting here writing how we have 296 people signed up after tickets were only on sale for 2 weeks, I'd say you're crazy!

Had someone explained to me 12 months ago that GSoM was going to blow up even during the off season, I'd say stop it!

Had someone prophesized 2 years ago that I'd be the flyest GSoM writer who happens to be dating Jessica Alba, I'd say HELLO SWEET MOMMA! YaoButtaMing is back!

Okay, so only two are correct but I can guarantee this, GSoM is going to rock. We're trying to sell 500 tickets, but we’re hoping to blow past that and make opening night one you'll remember forever. Who isn’t looking forward to this upcoming season? I mean let’s face it …

1) The Giants stink

2) The A’s aren’t making the playoffs

3) 49ers are back but I don’t want to jinx them

4) Raiders can’t even sign their draft pick

5) The Sharks? Well they had to sign a 59 year old retired name just to salvage the off-season.

Am I over exaggerating? Possibly, but aren’t the Warriors the greatest show on earth? Better grab your tickets ASAP because they are going quick. Need I say more than what many of you already have?

The bottom line is, don't miss out. We're all going to be there with our GSoM attitude and passion. I would hate to see you missing out. Basically, don't pull a Miss Teen Carolina! Only she would miss this VIP party! Even if we gave her a map and directions she'd probably end up somewhere in Alberta. US Americans ... sheesh! Do you really want to end up like this?

1. Opening Night baby! Tuesday, October 30, 2007
Warrior fans unite on opening night. We'll rock the house and knock the Jazz back to Salt Lake.

2. Free GSoM Night 2 T-shirt
Yes, free GSoM Night 2 t-shirts courtesy of a Tony.psd design. You'll be fly and the whole section will be rockin' them like one big unified ball of cotton.
Wait, did I mention they were free?
Oh and did I mention that our award winning graphic artist, Tony.psd is designing them?
Will they be hot? Most definitely. They'll sell for at least $500 a piece on ebay.

3. GSoM Raffle
Everyone who purchases a ticket will be entered into a raffle for amazing Warriors merchandise, great tickets to future games, awesome Warriors memorabilia, and collectible signed Tony.psd posters. It's all love from us to you. Nothin but love from the family show.

4. Jumbotron
Show the Jumbotron love and it will return the favor. We'll be on there and we'll be loud when we're on there. No doubt.

5. Exclusive Tickets
Will opening night sell out? Yes.
Do you want to go? Yes.
Can the general public buy opening night tickets yet? No.
When can the general public begin to buy opening night tickets? Mid-September.
So where can you get exclusive opening night tickets right now? Today? GSoM. Come get some.

6. Family Friendly Section
We do our best to make this a family friendly website and so we want to make sure all of our events are the same way. So if you have younger kids or would prefer to be in a section away from the crazed (bordering psycho) Warrior fans like me, we've set it up with the Warriors so that you can sit and enjoy the game how you want to.

To get your exclusive tickets, contact Warriors group ticket sales representative, Chris Murphy to purchase your tickets.

Tickets are $30 each (regularly $35) in sections 205-212 and 221-228. Come sit with the best fans in the Bay. Here's Chris Murphy's contact info:

free shirts

hey ive already got tickets so I can't go with you guys, but could I still purchese one of your t-shirts designed by Tony.psd?

Advice

We won't be able to give out or sell any of the t-shirts since it's all being handled by the Warriors.

So here's what to do:
Buy the GSOM ticket and get the t-shirt for free. Sell you current seats and make a profit on them. I have no doubt that you can sell opening night tickets for above face value.

The experience of GSOM Night will be like none other. Sitting with at least 500 people who share the same passion as you or sitting amongst strangers? Trust me, you'll want to be in our section and involved with the rest of us. You'll have your other seats the rest of the year, GSOM Night will come around only once, maybe twice a year.

Agreed

It's not about the seats, it's about the community experience. If you have lower bowl seats or season tickets, etc to the game you're going to regret not sitting in the GSoM section. Oh and you'll hear and see us from around the arena!

aight

Alright thanks for the advice. I still don't know what I'm gunna do though cuz Im sure my dad would much rather sit in our seats. They sure are good seats, but I would also wanna chill with all of you.

Sigh, I wish I could go...

Unfortunately, I live in o' of them Asian countries now, so it's hard for me to make it to the coliseum.

Meanwhile, I just can't get enough of that video clip. In her utter sweetness and utter cluelessness, Miss South Carolina pretty much sums up the American character. I'm sure she genuinely believes that "tha Asian countries" are all dying for us to "help" them, the same way we're "helping" tha Eye-Rack...

While I'm in here, might as well take advantage of this GSoM lull to post some of my favorite political song lyrics, penned by Randy Newman during the Vietnam war, but more apt today than ever:

----

Political Science (1971)

No one likes us, I don't know why
We may not be perfect, but heaven knows we try
But all around, even our old friends put us down
Let's drop the big one and see what happens

We give them money, but are they grateful?
No, they're spiteful and they're hateful
They don't respect us, so let's surprise them
We'll drop the big one and pulverize them

Asia's crowded and Europe's too old
Africa is far too hot
And Canada's too cold
And South America stole our name
Let's drop the big one
There'll be no one left to blame us

We'll save Australia
Don't wanna hurt no kangaroo
We'll build an All American amusement park there
They got surfin', too

Boom goes London and boom Paris
More room for you and more room for me
And every city the whole world round
Will just be another American town
Oh, how peaceful it will be
We'll set everybody free
You'll wear a Japanese kimono
And there'll be Italian shoes for me

They all hate us anyhow
So let's drop the big one now
Let's drop the big one now

Anyone else got any favorite song lyrics, political or otherwise?
