That was by far the worst type of incident like that I've ever seen. Sure beats 'chair into the stands'. I've seen fans react, but never duke it out with the opposing team like this. At the very least the NBA can be assured that I, one viewer, was entertained by the whole thing, because as far as I know no one was seriously injured. I got to see a nice brawl for free, when I need stupid HBO to watch Sugar Shane tomorrow. I am interested to see the fallout.
As for the booze. Without it no one would go to the games. I, and likely the rest of us, am able to enjoy a live event without drinking, but those of us like that are certainly in the minority. Banning beer would cripple ticket sales and total sales in general, and with player salaries as they are the whole league would crumble. Baseball has a none after the 7th inning rule, and I think football has a third quarter rule. I always assumed the NBA was the same. Is this not true?
Good thing Tinsley stayed out of it. Picking up Croshere was a good move, Cap.![]()
