NBA Stadiums Blog Day





We're deep into the off-season, and there's not that much exciting news going on. That's why it's a perfect time for the NBA blogosphere to throw something original in the direction of our readers (Hey, there are only so many Monta Ellis lied to the Warriors posts I can read before my head explodes). That's why the NBA blogosphere is going to come together next Monday (September 15th) for an NBA Stadiums Blog Day.  Basically, next Monday a bunch of us NBA bloggers are going to be posting our favorite stories about our favorite NBA stadiums and our favorite NBA stadium experiences. Here are the blog participants so far:


This is also an opportunity for readers to get involved as well. If you don't have a blog, but would like to submit a story about your favorite NBA stadium or favorite NBA stadium experience, please email me at jonesonthenba [at] gmail.com. I'll post the stories here on the day of the event.  Submissions should be stories about being at a stadium during a big game or big moment in NBA history. Stories should also contain information about what made/makes games at your favorite stadium unique (fans, hot dog guys, concessions, player introductions, lighting, seating, scoreboards, cheerleaders, mascots, celebrity fans, etc.) If people are as nostalgic as I am, I'm sure we're going to get tons of stories about the Forum, Boston Garden, Madison Square Garden (I could write and entire blog post just about MSG's awesome P.A. Man Mike Walcheski), Chicago Stadium, and the Spectrum.  Check back Monday for links to all the action. 

UPDATE: The NBA Stadiums Blog Day running thread is up

Really nice blog. Looking forward to reading more.

If you can get athletes to be socially conscience AND proactive? Boy, you'll be the next Obama.
