Bumped from the diaries. Slightly reformatted to include more amazing shots from bluejoe. If you are in San Jose, find a way to get your a$$es into HP pavillion. GO BRUINS. -N

I just went down to HP pavilion and bought 3 tickets from the ticket office. I got upper level, but center court (section 215) 6 rows back - pretty good seats. If you live near San Jose and really want to go, I would call 408-287-7070 for info - however, they may not have much information on if there are tix available. It's best to go there in person and ask. I was amazed to score these seats $76 each. They were only taking cash though - there is an ATM next to the box office.

I'm obviously ecstatic about getting these seats and I only waited 30 mins in line (which was pretty short). There are tickets that are occassionally being turned in to the box office and then are put up for sale. I really would encourage you to keep checking at HP Pavilion the hours are 9:30-5. If you have a friend you could split up the ticket checking duty.

There isn't much time left, but I could not let myself miss seeing this game live and it's in my home town.
