I as well except it was Dallas and went to 2x games back in 96-97 or it could've been 97-98 obviously they weren't very good back then and there weren't a lot of fans so it made all the Jazz fans stick out a lot more.

Nice. Dwill played unbelievable in that game, maybe his best playoff performance to date. I was real nervous when the nuggs took the lead near the end and got all the momentum back, but our guys were so clutch, especially Korver with that dagger 3. Probably my fav game I've been to.

My record is 6-6. Izod Center sucked, I look foward to the Prudential Center this season. Newark is a much easier, less congested drive than East Rutherford.
I went to all five last season and plan on doing the same thing this season. Long five hour drive to Boston but it's on a Friday.

You went to the Izod center at the wrong time.
I witnessed history.
Yes I was at that game
road games in charlotte and philly
I used to go to bobcats games when I lived in East Tennessee.... sat behind the Boozer family, Boozer's sister is a hoot who got into it with some hecklers. Some guys behind me started shouting boozer loser chants and Boozer's Dad stared him down... scary mean lookin dude. I was there with my young son and was ready to grab him and run if a brawl ensued.
At another game, I say the Giricek/ Sloan shouting match/ tos up-close-and personal, which was quite the scene.
Now I'm in Philly and watch the jazz-sixers each year. Thinking about Nets/ Wizard/ Knicks this year as well.

First time poster here. Huge Jazz fan since my uncle showed me the way in 1992.
I live in Michigan, and have gone to see the Jazz/Pistons games. Last year I took my 5 year old, both of us geared p, and went to The Palace. We bought tickets 3 rows behind the Jazz bench for dirt cheap. (I guess Pistons fans have no desire to watch Detroit get thumped by a team from Utah, so there were plenty of good seats available on Stubhub.) About 15 other Jazz fans all had the same idea. Since the Jazz led the whole game, we were pretty loud and having a good (but goodnatured) time. The Pitons fans were OK with us, pretty ambivalent more than anything else. It wasa blast to have a small segment of Jazz fans sitting behind the bench getting rowdy. The team liked it too. The guys kept talking to us, waving, etc.
I'll be there again this year, with my boy. If you're in the Detroit area, I recommend that you join us, one of the highlighs of the year for me and my son.

I live in SLC but have been to road games in Denver and Atlanta.
Atlanta's arena is actually awesome. I was there for the 2006 game in Atlanta when the Jazz were down 21 entering the 4th and came back and won. It was sweet. The arena announcer actually had to encourage them to stand up and cheer when the Hawks were absolutely taking it to the Jazz. Still, they barely cheered. You'll like it there. It's a cool place.
Denver's arena is also pretty cool, but it's so spread out and the seats actually muffle a lot of the noise, so it's a lot quieter than I'm sure it could be. Jazz fans in the arena are WAY better than Denver's, but being in Denver's arena makes you realize why people talk about the ESA noise so much... there's no padding at all in the ESA, but most other arenas are nice, comfy, acoustically-sound buildings that muffle a lot of the noise. We won that game, too..
Clearly, the key to Jazz road games is bringing me along.

Went to a game in Denver. Got trash talked by punk fans even after we won. Got on the shuttle back to the hotel and the Nugget fans convinced the driver to stop at the liquor store so they could get booze. Which they then drank in the van while heckling my cousin and I for being from Utah. Stay classy, Denver.
Not something you experience on a typical SLC Friday evening.
