The Denver Nuggets - Gimme Some Hoops!
Not only does Denver have a professional football team, a professional baseball team, a professional hockey team, a professional lacrosse team, and a score of not-so-professional teams, but we also have a pro basketball team! I’m talking about the Denver Nuggets! Their home turf is the Pepsi Center, which is conveniently located to many hotels and transportation for the basketball fans from out of state.
The Nuggets suffered a loss over the weekend, losing to the Portland Trail Blazers. However, the team is having a great season so far, with 20 wins chalked up. The next home game is Thursday, December 20th, against the Houston Rockets. Tickets are available through Ticketmaster or the box office at the Pepsi Center.When the guys aren’t on the court, you can find them giving back to the community at various events. A few of the players also have blogs, including Carmelo Anthony, and Marcus Camby, and the announcers for the team also have a blog, the Koz and Bravo U.S. tour, where they sight see in the city where the Nuggets are playing, if they have a full day off.
You can also meet your favorite player if he’s scheduled to appear through Conoco’s Player Appearances. During an Appearance, you can register to win an autographed jersey, spin a prize wheel, and… all grades of Conoco gas will be the same price during a player appearance!

We also have an outdoor lacrosse team….the Denver Outlaws of Major League Lacrosse and they play at INVESCO Field at Mile High.
