A large group with a ton of little kids came and blocked my view of half the court for the large majority of the game by trying to get their kids in the correct seats and handing out snacks. With under 4 mins in the 2nd half left they were still handing out snack and then they left with 1:30 left in the game.

It was absurdly inconsiderate

You should have went down there, took their snacks, and told them to sit the frick down.

Then eat the snacks when you got back to your seat while flipping them a bird.

I was in 220 with my fiancé and it was crazy up there. I wanted to sit lower down but wasn't about to pay 30 bucks from a scalper. It's funny because I only paid $15 for a lower level sit for the South Florida game. I guess that's the price you pay to see a winning team. It was good to see such a great turn out and I'm looking forward to next Saturday at the CLA. Not sure what the halftime show was all about, it seemed like they gathered every underage girl in Aiken and brought them to the game for some reason.

That's the Columbia City Dance Club or something like that. They've done halftime shows before and my group of friends always thought it was ridiculous.

They especially seemed catered to phedophiles today with what they wore. And I don't think I would term one of the dances our dance team did family entertainment

We were high-up in 104 just off the isle with the walkway behind us. Not crazy about those seats but they worked ok.

Bad part was we had people coming and going in the isle to our right and also on the walkway behind us the whole game, non-stop. But they were freebies so beggars cannot be choosy.

Pretty good crowd there today though.

I lost my cool with around 2-3 mins left in the game and yelled for them to sit down.

I could of sworn the announcer said that they were from Aiken but being so high up it was hard to understand anything that was said. I actually wanted to move to the student section during the game but my fiance didn't want to take a chance of running into one of her students (she's a professor in the public health dept).

Maybe it was Aiken I just assumed it was Cola. Someone behind us said "that's the dance club" when they were lining up on the sidelines

Burns Dance Studio.

They train the Pacer dancers and usually provide half-time entertainment at least once a year.

Yes, they are from Aiken.

Thanks for clearing that up for us Carolina Girl. Anyways it wasn't too bad since we had a parking spot in the parking garage right beside the arena.

On second thought you might be right because I've seen that same group doing the same routine last year. Anyways it wasn't too bad since we had a parking spot in the parking garage right beside the arena.


See my post right above yours.

Burns Dance Studio.

They train the USCA-Pacers dancers and have a lot of privates with the Carolina Girls.

Nah..replies post simultaneously as initial posts so many times it's funny on here.

Burns' has a reputation of having their younger dancers perform the same kinds of routines that they coach the Pacer Dancers and Carolina Girls in. My daughter was a Carolina Girl...and even though she was "of age" at the time, I still kind of winced at some of the dance moves.

Good to know and I was wondering, do they have boys out there doing the routines with the girls? My lady thought that the two kids in red vests were boys but we couldn't tell for sure bc of where we were sitting.

Funny, I probably passed you on my way down to my seat or when we left at the end.

Was sitting in 104 on Row 7.

You can sit in the lower arena for only 30 bucks?

You are one lucky bastard.
