Get Me To The Draft!

by robrun2 on May 21, 2008 2:18 PM PDT

Okay guys, here's what's going on. This coming summer, I'll be making my first ever trip into New York City proper. (I say proper because a couple of times I flew though Newark and saw the Statue of Liberty from an airplane window. Not mine, because I'm always seated on the aisle so I have to get up wait while an elderly person or a kid with no bladder control shuffle their way past me, stubbing my toes.) Anyway, I'll be arriving on June 24. The draft is two days later, on the 26th. My question is, what does it take to get into the draft? Do you need press credentials? Is there a drawing? Do you just show up? Anyway, I don't know much about this sort of thing, so maybe you folks could help me, perhaps Dave or Ben also?

i think you need tickets

I always hear a lot of fans in there booing the Knicks’ picks (every single year). If that’s the case, there has to be a way for you to get in as a fan. Call some ticket offices in New York or call Madison Square Garden or look at the Knicks’ website or something… there has to be some way to get in.

Where I would like to be

is in the Blazers’ war room! I can imagine the incredible high the past two years with KP running things…..
