Alphabet Date B – Basketball Date – Wizards NBA Game

If you read Hudson’s latest post, you know that we’re starting Alphabet Dating – where we do one date a week based on each letter of the alphabet. My first letter to plan was B, so I decided to do a basketball date!

We’ve lived in DC for over three years now and had not yet been to a Wizards game. Actually, I had never been to any NBA game before, so I was really excited when I found cheap tickets to a Wizards vs. Sixers basketball game! Apparently the Sixers aren’t very good this year (did not know that – haha), but since we are from Pennsylvania it was really neat to be able to see them play. And it actually ended up being a pretty close game!

We took the metro into the city and may or may not have gotten in an argument on the way. Ha – the whole point of alphabet dating is to ENJOY the time together, so thankfully afterward we were able to laugh about it, but isn’t it funny how that works?!

Our seats were near the top of the very top level of the Verizon Center, but after halftime the one attendant showed us some empty seats that we could move down to, which put us…still at the very top level of the Verizon Center, haha! BUT we kept ourselves occupied by guessing the score (Hudson may or may not have guessed closer than I did ;), making paper airplanes, pretending that we were on the jumbotron, and of course watching the game. :)

We had such a great time together, and it made me wish I had been to an NBA game sooner!

Here’s a video we made of our basketball date:
