The Cleveland Cavaliers and Illadelphia 76ers are in town for a little preseason NBA
basketball game at US Bank Arena.* It's not every day that you get to see two teams
that have little chance of making the playoffs play basketball in Cincinnati. Let's go...
There weren't a whole lot of people at US Bank Arena. I wonder if that has something
LeBron "taking his talents to South Beach." If you ask me, that's even more reason to
come to the game. I can actually start to like the Cavs now that LeBron is gone.
And the Cavs won. Hooray! Actually I don't think I ever saw them trail in the ballgame.

*So come to find out that US Bank Arena doesn't allow dSLR cameras with big piss off
lenses in the stadia. Who knew? It's not like I didn't take my big camera with my big
70-300mm lens to almost every Cyclones game I went to last season. It's a good thing
I live close as I had to walk my camera back home. That's a silly rule. But whatever,
my point and shoot has the same exact zoom capability as my 70-300mm lens. So noted.
I won't bother lugging the big camera to US Bank Arena.
Hey Thadd, I had the same thing happen to me at a baseball game here in New York. The guard looked right at my camera and said, "That's not a professional camera, is it?" And I looked down at my DSLR with my 70-300mm lens and said, "Why no, this is just a simple point and shoot".

The guard came rushing over to me and she said,
ReplyDelete"Your camera's too big. You can't bring it in.
You'll have to take it back to you car." Ugh. It's
really weird. I don't understand what the big deal
is.
I like the 3rd from the bottom photo. The woman looks like she is almost rolling her eyes at the dancers! lol That sucks about your camera! :( You still took great shots anyways.
