The 2nd Raptor 51 Point Game I've Seen Live

Air Canada

My daughter and I were at the Raptors game tonight to witness Terrence Ross score 51 points and tie a franchise record.

I was there the night Vince Carter scored 51 back in 2000.  Here's my ticket stub from that game.  It sort of blows my mind that I've been at the ACC for both games to feature 51 point games from a Raptor, considering I don't go to many Raptors games.

If anyone is good at math and wants to do the calculations, I've probably been to 12 Raptors games in my life.  I'll bet the odds of seeing both 51 point games are pretty miniscule.

We were actually tied with the Clippers at 102 late in the fourth quarter, making this an incredibly entertaining game.  My daughter loved it, including the half-time performance of "Whoop! (There it is) by Tag Team.

My poor daughter now thinks all basketball games are this exciting #raptors

A big thanks to the awesome people at Ford Canada who gave me these tickets so I could take my buddy.  My buddy wasn't feeling up to it tonight, so my daughter happily pinch hit.
