First Rockets Game

This wasn't Finley's first basketball game, she has been to a University of Houston basketball game and the NCAA South Regional, but it was her first ever NBA game. The start time was 7:30 pm, which is past Finley's bedtime, but we decided to go ahead and try our luck.  Finley was loving it!  So many lights, sounds and fun.  Her favorite thing was the "Bear".  Clutch is the Rockets mascot and she was totally taken with him.  Clutch rode in on a red motorcycle and kept asking where his motorcycle went the entire game.  On the elevator ride to our car, a guy had a Clutch bear and Finley thought that was too cool.  Sadly, the Rockets lost to the 76ers, but Finley had a great time.  She even made it all the way to the fourth quarter.  Such a trooper!
