Rockets Fans Invited to FREE Scrimmage

Houston Rockets fans are invited to attend a FREE Scrimmage and enjoy a special discounted power lunch ($1 hot dogs, nachos, popcorn and soda) with the Rockets at Toyota Center, Monday, October 9, as the team readies for the start of the 2006-07 NBA season.

Doors open at 12:15 p.m.

In addition to an up close and personal look at the talents of previous and new team members, fans will have an opportunity to take part in a Chalk Talk hosted by a Rockets Basketball Operations representative, post-scrimmage autograph and free-throw sessions with Rockets players, and a special Q & A session during the noontime event.

Passes will be required to participate in the post-scrimmage autograph session and free-throws with Rockets players. A limited number of passes (1,000) will be distributed at the doors while supplies last, so fans are encouraged to arrive early.

Fans will also find a variety of interactive Rockets games located throughout the Toyota Center concourse, have an opportunity to take part in pre-game contests on the court and visit the Rockets Team Shop to check out the latest in official Rockets and NBA apparel.

Free parking will be available in the Tundra Garage on the First Level.
