Last year I was unable to get tickets for this event. So the min I heard that the Battle 4 Vegas was coming again, I made sure I got me and 5 other tickets. I figured Nick would go with me since he's a big Raider fan and I had hoped Christopher and Kirstin would go since they are big Golden Knights Fans. Nanette said Rick is a big Raiders fan, so there, my 6 tickets were accounted for. We all met up at Lazy Dogs for dinner. Its across the street from the Las Vegas Ballpark where the game was going to be. We walked to the park and found our seats. I was a little sad because I didn't realize I had gotten tickets on the Golden Knights side. I like them, but not like I do the Raiders. So I got up to go get me a poster and Nick went with me. I was going to get one for everyone. While in line to get one, I saw on the big screen Josh Jacobs signing autographs near the dugout on the other side. I told Nick I was going to run over there and he came with. None of the guards/ushers would let us down without a ticket. I finally found one that let us pass by him and that was the golden ticket. LOL We were able to get most of the team to sign my helmet and his flag. Marcus Allen told me I can't sign a million things when I asked if he would sign mine, but I did get a picture. Maxx Crosby was super cool. I threw my helmet towards him but it hit the net. He laughed and someone got it to him. Tim Brown also signed it. After that we got even closer. I literally was able to hand my stuff right to them at the end of the dugout. Josh Jacobs, Henry Ruggs III, Alec Ingold, Damon Arnett, Willie Snead, Jonathan Abrams and Darren Waller were all so very nice and accommodating to the fans. I saw my friend Cynthia there and we just stayed with her the rest of the time. If I left, there was no coming back down. So we made the best of it and got to enjoy a night that I most certainly won't forget anytime soon. I felt bad that I ditched my kids and Nanette, but my kids understood. They got their Golden Knights jersey signed and his hat. I don't shy away from fun or adventure. If I can make it happen its going to. Nick was so happy he was able to get his flag signed by so many players in one spot. Too bad his gf couldn't make it. After the Raiders won the game, we met back up with Nanette and Rick. We walked back to our cars. Nick left and the 3 of us went back into Lazy Dog because I was extremely thirsty. Couldn't get drinks in fear of not being able to get back to the seats we jacked. LOL So we got water and some desserts to share. It was a PERFECT night.
