2. A chance for fans in Orlando…kind of
The Memphis Grizzlies announced on Twitter yesterday that they were teaming up with Michelob Ultra to provide a courtside experience for a select number of Memphis Grizzlies fans.
The Michelob ULTRA Courtside Fan Experience will offer certain fans a chance to view a select number of Grizzlies games in Orlando from a whole new perspective. Taken straight from their website:
"“Winners of the sweepstakes will be able to share in the excitement of the game alongside other Grizzlies fans, cheer on the Grizzlies as they make their playoff push and provide the players the home-court advantage they need…Space is limited and spots will go fast. Grizzlies 365 MVP members will have their own chance to watch the games via the Virtual Courtside Fan Experience. MVP’s will be receiving an email from their account executive with the opportunity to sign up and watch along with other Grizzlies season ticket holders."
At this time, it’s unclear both how the fans will be selected–if it’s first come first serve or do certain fans get priority–as well as how exactly this courtside experience will work. Still, it’s an interesting prospect for fans who want to be a part of NBA history, and you can register at the link above.
