The Warriors organized a playoff event to exchange guns for tickets. The reason for this is to respond to the call of the California government. April is California's gun management month every year. The United States is too rampant, especially in the San Francisco area, so the team and clubs took advantage of the opportunity to carry out such an event to collect private guns.

This event is very attractive to fans, because as the Warriors become more and more powerful, they are now rising and there are more and more fans, which has caused the scene of hard to get a ticket for the playoffs. Now even the scalpers have no tickets. The third and fourth games of the Warriors and the Jazz have already been sold out. The front desk ticket, which was originally 500 US dollars per ticket, has now been hyped up to 8,000 US dollars, and it has no market price!

So when the Warriors launched this event, they immediately received a warm response from the fans.

Under the escort of the bodyguards, Chamberlain and other teammates participated in the event throughout the whole process. The group walked down from the bus and the fans waiting outside the gymnasium cheered happily. Various SLRs, digital cameras, and mobile phone lenses began to shine.

Jackson took the lead. He wore a black windbreaker, a scarf around his neck, and his chaotic black hair was well organized, as if he was ditched. Barnes and others dressed differently, but no one was in serious suits and ties. Even though Stern was forcibly implementing the "dressing order", the stars did not obviously fight Stern. They played a strait, and no one was wearing a generous hip-hop suit. From this point of view, Stern won the dressing order war.

Under the escort of bodyguards, Chamberlain and others entered the gymnasium one by one, and then the fans also began to enter the venue. The police cars were congested at the scene and police officers were everywhere. The scene was extremely hot. Even the state swat tactical team in Los Angeles was sent. The scene was full of military and police armed to the teeth. The scene was so majestic that it was enough to overshadow the Hollywood blockbusters.

But this is normal. As long as the fans who came to the scene to participate in the event were each holding a gun, and some people had more than one gun. It is roughly estimated that there were tens of thousands of people coming to the scene, and there were swords and guns everywhere. If they were mobilized, they could fight a small-scale conflict.

Chamberlain was not in a high mood, Jackson asked, "What's wrong, man, aren't you the most interested in attending such activities?"

In the past, Chamberlain was very happy to participate in charity activities, and Jackson and others were as if they were lost. This time, the guns of various types of guns on the scene made them excited.

Chamberlain sighed and said, "Boss Jack, aren't you afraid?"

Jackson subconsciously asked, "What are you afraid of?"

Chamberlain came to him and whispered a little nervously: "Damn, I really don't know why the club is doing this kind of activity. Let's see, how many guns and ammunition are there? If a black gun suddenly comes out now, our lives will not be saved! If someone takes out an m60, then our entire team will be finished!"

After hearing this, Jackson laughed. It was the first time he saw Chamberlain, who was so majestic and fearless that he showed a weak posture. He couldn't help but feel surprised. He grabbed Chamberlain's arm and told Barnes, Ellis and others next to him.

Barnes and his group of birdmen were all big-mouthed. Soon the Warriors players all knew Chamberlain's concerns and laughed together.

This result made Chamberlain angry and angry, and he shouted, "You guys laugh, aren't I just thinking about your life?"

Billups smiled and waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, z, all entrances to the gym are inspected by military and police, and there is no bullet to bring in. If the fans want to enter the venue, they can only hold empty guns, so we don't have to worry about our lives."

If the fans can enter the court with a loaded gun, then he would not dare to give Billups ten courages. What if he meets a madman? What if he meets a Jazz fan? Well, the metaphor behind this is not suitable, because Jazz fans are madmen, and the two are synonyms.

In the terrified mood of Chamberlain, the activity ended smoothly. The San Francisco Police Department received 1,204 rifles, 688 shotguns, 560 submachine guns, 448 pistols and 22 machine guns from the event. The fans exchanged nearly 2,000 tickets in total.

The fans were very happy because they got the tickets for the game as they wished. The San Francisco police were also very happy because they took back so many guns, and the city safety has at least improved to a higher level. The Warriors are just as happy because these tickets are not for free, but were bought by the police station, and they just borrowed their hands to exchange tickets with the fans.

The playoff publicity event ended, and the next day, Chamberlain and others flew to the Utah Plateau on a special plane. They are fifth in the West and have three home games in the middle. If they can play more than five games, the first two home games will be from the Jazz.

On the plane, Billups warned Chamberlain that he would not be surprised later. Chamberlain secretly said that I was surprised. I had experienced bullets yesterday, what else is scary now?

But when the bus that picked up and dropped off the players drove out of the stadium, Chamberlain understood that there were things that were even more terrifying than gunfire.

As soon as the bus drove out of the airport, it was immediately surrounded by a group of fanatical fans. These fans used their hands and wooden sticks to hit the bus's body, making the surroundings jammed. Some hippies took out the spray prepared in advance and quickly turned the bus into a big flowery face. Colorful paintings appeared on the body. Chamberlain looked in the reflector and found that it was full of patterns such as male and female genitals.

The Salt Lake City police arrived for half an hour after fans surrounded the bus, which made Chamberlain extremely angry and cursed: "Damn, these damn sticks were deliberately late. In half an hour, they were enough to drive the car around the damn Salt Lake City twice."

Billups patted the table and chair with a decisive patting, "Calm down, z, be calm, haven't I told you not to be surprised? This kind of thing is very common. You should know that in the 1998 and 1999 finals, the Utahs blocked the Bulls' bus for two hours!"

Chamberlain clenched his fists and said, "A bunch of clowns, fuck, when I get on the court, I will make these damn bastards look good! I will teach them a lesson!"

Ellis turned his head and smiled humbly: "It's nothing, z. When the Jazz players arrive at our territory, they are treated the same as us."

Damn, it turns out that this is still the tradition of NBA? Chamberlain was speechless and could only sit down in a depressed state.

This is the crazy atmosphere of the NBA playoffs. It is even more terrifying in the finals. Jordan was drugged. This shows how extreme the fans are. Not only Jordan has been hit, but Kobe has also had such an experience.

The visiting team was having a headache and a fever when they went out, and it was inevitable that they would not adapt to the local conditions. Jordan encountered the "mysterious pizza", while Kobe was given a slut by a sandwich.

At 4 a.m. on the second game day of the 2002 Western Conference Finals, Lakers doctor Gary Witty was woken up by Kobe's phone call. The other party told him that he had eaten a bacon sandwich and a piece of cheese, and then he started to have stomach cramps from 1 a.m. When Vitty saw Kobe, she was shocked and found that he had food poisoning.

The hotel immediately issued a statement on the theory of poisoning, saying that the food Kobe ate is the hotel's registered food. About 1,200 rooms will eat similar food, and no other guests have any food poisoning. Therefore, Kobe's physical discomfort is likely not a problem with the food. The hotel also stated that they have strict management and will never have fans in to mess around and make trouble.

Just when questioning someone who was making trouble in Sacramento, the Sacramento Bee quoted a hotel owner: "Bryant is not food poisoning, but excessive drinking. Kobe got drunk in his shop the night before." The newspaper pointed out that the Lakers were there. After the news broke, it caused an uproar in the world, but it was proved that this was false.

After that series, Kobe's lawyer sued the Sacramento Bee for reporting serious facts that Kobe never went to the hotel that night. The hotel owner interviewed said that he had never said Kobe was drunk or something like that. In the end, the Sacramento Bee lost the case and publicly apologized to Kobe in mid-February 2003.

All in all, NBA has never lacked such crazy things, and Chamberlain is now experiencing them personally.

After being trapped by fans at the airport for half an hour, the bus finally slowly set off. Chamberlain and others were eager to rest, but the bus was driving very slowly. It was not that the driver didn't want to drive, nor that the road conditions were very crowded now, but because there were racing parties and motorcycle parties around the bus, they sometimes appeared in front of the bus blocking the road, and sometimes they were placed at the rear of the car to greet the car with rotten eggs, rotten tomatoes and other things.

Listening to the roar of various high-power engines outside, Chamberlain was extremely annoyed, but he couldn't do anything. No one was sure whether there were lunatics among the fans outside. If they angered them, they would be terrible.

In fact, he was overly worried. There were police cars and buses along the way, but these policemen were also Jazz fans and turned a blind eye to such fans' harassment. However, if someone really dared to act seriously, they would never be ruthless.

Finally arrived at the Caesars Palace, a five-star hotel in Salt Lake City. After Chamberlain asked for his own door card, he hurried upstairs. The Warriors booked half a floor, and there were a total of twenty-five rooms belonging to them. Chamberlain's room license plate was 2218, which was Room 18 on the 22nd floor.

Chamberlain finally breathed a sigh of relief when he found room 2218. He took out the door card and swiped the door. He heard two warning sounds of "Didi" and the door did not open.

"Shit!" Chamberlain was very depressed. The hotel wouldn't be unable to get along with them, right? Is this card not magnetic? He tried it again, but still couldn't open the door. The other teammates' experience was the same as him, and the card was also invalid.

Chamberlain was really angry now. He punched the door and shouted: "Damn it, sue me for this damn hotel. How dare he tease the client?"
