My son, Scott, and I went to the Twisters Meet and Greet last night at Alltel to pick up our season tickets to the 2009 Season of Arena2 Football. We are so excited about the season starting.
We decided before we left that we were just going to pick up our tickets and see who was there, check out the team merchandise they had for sale and then go to El Chico and eat Mexican food. When we first got there, everyone was inside the dining room eating, but we did get to see a few of the team members even though they were not dressed in their uniform and it was hard to pick them out of the people mingling around. We talked to some of the Booster Club members.....we haven't signed up yet this year, but probably will.
We have joined the Booster Club the last 3 or 4 years but aren't very active members. Oh, we do go to the tailgate parties before the games and hang out there for a while and talk to the members and players that drop by. Maybe, now that my daughter, Pam, is a season ticket holder, she would go with me to some of the activities. Scott doesn't usually care about getting into large crowds and he likes his weekends to do what he wants. I don't blame him for that. Anyone who knows Scott can figure out the reason for that. He is an avid Twisters fan though. I can definitely say that about him.
So is my daughter, Pam, and my grandkids, Gage and Lexi. We are season ticket holders and have been for the last 3 years. Before that, I would get tickets from my boss at work. They always had tickets available for employees who enjoyed the game. I was in his office every week that the Twisters played, asking for 3 to 5 tickets, whatever he would give me.
We have all gone on several trips to away games. We have gone to Tulsa OK, I think 3 times; Shreveport LA - once; and last year to Oklahoma City. OK. We are planning at least two trips this year to Shreveport and Tulsa. I can't wait! We always have a good time - win or lose. Winning is best!
So, Saturday, March 28th, 7 pm, we will be at Alltel, screaming and yelling for our Twisters to win. It is great fun. Try it, you might like it.
