Detroit.........Basketball

The Sunday Brian and I got back from our vacation we were lucky enough to go to a Bulls-Pistons game. The weather was snowy and icy, so my Dad and brother who were going to join us couldn't make the drive in, but Brian and I ventured out and had a great time. We received the tickets at a silent auction that benefited the local Lutheran High School. We were guests of one of the members at the elegant night. We had decided ahead of time that we would make a donation to the school and bid on something. We picked the Bulls-Pistons game. The process of bidding was very exciting and we thought we had the tickets at one point, but someone upped the bid out of our range. We thought, "Such is life." Well, we were with another family from St. Peter who at the last minute placed the winning bid for the tickets. When they won they turned to us and said, "Here, you just won some basketball tickets." This was a very generous gift. The seats were very good and it was neat to see a basketball game from so close. The game itself was close until the end. Though the Bulls did lose, it was a neat experience and a generous gift.
