We were FAKE NEWS yesterday when we posted that the Sixers just recently decided to add a t-shirt giveaway to an already sold out game in a pricing tier all its own last night. What confused us was the fact that the Sixers sent out a press release reminder for the rather routine event (free t-shirt giveaway, theme night), which is not typical. The shirts were white – the Sixers originally encouraged everyone to wear blue to the game – and were meant to create a white out atmosphere, perhaps to combat all the blue and gold of real and bandwagon Warriors fans (again, the Sixers encouraged everyone to wear blue to this game when their promotion schedule was released). How did it go? NOT WELL:

Not only did the white out not work, but I can’t even find a single row of people wearing all white.
Side note: To be fair, Villanova tried this for the Virginia game a few weeks ago– they didn’t do much better, but they also didn’t give out 20,000 free t-shirts.

Didn’t B Dawk blow a guy whilst attending Clemson?
No, but I gave and got head @ Adonis Cinema on 20th & Samson st.
And no, I didn’t swallow I spit.
He meant to say B Dawk supports ramming it down his throat not their throats.
Saw some old nerdy white lady at the game last night dancing all goofy trying to go viral. Made me sick

Compared to this, the Nap Nanny was a raging success.
I was at the game last night and prior to the tip, they had the blue dog rappel from the rafters and then some guy was yelling into the mic “put the shirts on”…”put the white shirts on”. I actually thought it a bit odd that they were yelling at the fans to put the cheap (XL…always XL) shirts on. It didn’t occur to me that they were attempting a “white out”. I also didn’t understand why free shirts would be necessary at an already sold out game. The Sixers owners are a bunch of jokers, one can only hope they figure it out one of these years.
And I never thought I say that.
I agree
I just got done watching the old NBA superstars video on YouTube. Ya know what, I’m changing my tune.

Anyone notice Molly a little more made up than usual and was also rocking a very low cut top last night.
Wonder if this is Molly taking the lead or Comcast?

FUCK BASKETBALL!
only losers watch it!
Eat a bag of dicks you scumbag, Scott O’Neil. Maybe they’ll fire all of the HR and Marketing staff again this offseason they hired 3 years ago to hire desperate college grades to save 5%.
Another FAILURE by the second worst organization in all of sports.
FUCK THE PROCESS.
