Dude. What a sucky birthday present, although it really was no fault of mine. In theory, a Lakers game against the Detroit Pistons was a fabulous present….but not if they lose. And they lost, 106-95. It was a dismal game. Not only that, we were seated around a bunch of Pistons fans, including one obnoxious guy who sounded like he was an Enimem wannabe sitting right behind me. It took all my willpower…

Anyway, here are the first pictures, including one of Jack Nicholson courtside. Our seats really were quite good, Section 107, row 7, seats 7 and 8. I took more pictures of this, and video, before my batteries went kaput. I’ll edit and post the rest of the photos tomorrow.
