Can you say BANDWAGON FANS!!!!!!
After an impressive 22 game win streak, which ended last night against the Boston Celtics, the fans of the Rockets showed their true colors... and sprinted for the exit.
Since they were losing by 20 points they filed out of the stadium faster than Sam Houston chased the Mexican army back to Mexico.
I think it is pretty pitiful that the Rocket fans could not wait till the end of the game and give their team the applause and congratulations that they deserved by winning 22 games in a row. Instead they showed how CLASSLESS they actually are and cared more about beating the traffic out of their arena. Is Houston a big enough city to have traffic?? That is a good question.
I know if my team won 22 straight games I would wait till the end of the game and cheer for them and say thank you for the incredible winning streak.
I think it was best said by Lakers postgame radio host Matt “Money Smith, that the Houston Rockets fans should be ashamed of themselves (for leaving early) and it shows their true colors.
Also, Memo to you Houston Rocket fans out there WHERE WERE YOU BEFORE THE WIN STREAK STARTED?????

So let me get this straight...someone from LA is criticizing people from Houston for being bandwagon? We're talking about LA, home of the worst bandwagon fans in the world right? That's a joke, right?

Is Houston a big enough city to have traffic?

lemme preface this by saying, im not from houston. im from LA. houston is the 4th largest city in the usa! you need to get out more mr. association. and another thing, why add to the hate by bringing up band-waggon-ism... seriously my friend, we're all just lovers of the game in one way or another. spread the love, and visit texas, its beautiful.

I have been to Texas before and the state is very large. All I was saying is that the fans could of stuck around to cheer for thier team for winning 22 straight games. That was teh least the Houston fans could of done was to stay to the end of a blow out to show ther respect.

Wow, have you been to Houston...obviously not.
1. Yes, leaving early is horribad and yes shame on Houston
2. Our traffic is 2nd only to NY/LA, come visit during rush hour and tell me how long it takes you to commute 5miles
3. Your an unintelligent simple minded blogger so i'm not surprised at your idiocy
4. LA is cesspool of crime/corruption/stupidy, and thanks for reminding me
-Houstonian.

Obviously this is not a picture of the game so we cannot accurately tell how many people actually left. Usually they wait to take the floor down until after the game...
