Toronto Raptors VS San Antonio Spurs

This Ticket Stub Confession comes from Dwade, who I know very well:

My girlfriend got me these tickets as a Christmas present....what a girl! She drove us into Toronto nice and early so we could park and get something to eat before the game which was at 7PM. We stopped in at the Eaton's Center to have a beer around 5PM too.

We got to the ACC nice and early, probably 45 minutes early. This gave us the chance to watch the warm-ups before the game. The seats were pretty good, a little high up, but pretty good. I had no problem seeing anything.

The game itself was amazing! The Raptors were down by about 20 points and looked as though they were dead. In the forth quarter they came back viciously. The Raptors actually managed to tie the game up with a minute left, I was standing up the whole time! Unfortunately, they ended up losing by five but it was still a sweet finish.

In Bruges

We sat down just as the lights were dimming. There were five of us; my girlfriend and I, my brother and his girlfriend, and one other friend of all of ours. My brother and our other friend left during to previews to get popcorn and iced tea for everyone. They got back just in time for the feature.

This was a good movie overall. The theater was full and I bet everybody laughed at least once. It definitely isn't the type of movie you'd take your kids to. There are plenty of racist remarks and cussing coming from those Irish mouths through the entire film. There are also a few violent and graphic parts. If you like dry comedy, European comedy/action films or Colin Farrell...give this one a shot.

3.5 out of 5 stars.
