Went home for a nap after watching this game at a friend’s place, then headed down to Olympic Plaza, where they had a Ticketmaster outlet. Camped out until the next morning in order to purchase game 7 tickets in the bleeders. We were first in line... next group arrived a few hours later.
About an hour before TM opened, they let us in the building to form the line there. Shortly after, 3-4 rough looking guys showed up to join the line. One, who we later nicknamed “The missing link” started trying to break into some of the displays in the lobby. Classic Link. They ended up being cool guys, but we gave the Link his space. Got tickets.. then ended up being very disappointed a few nights later.
Good part is that game 7 was one of my first dates with my then girlfriend, now wife.
