Attention, please. The Hornets would like to make a few announcements

You know the Hornets' season is coming up when you look at the calendar and see a full week's worth of Hornets events. Leading up to their season opener at Golden State, the Hornets will be making appearances at the Audobon Zoon, at Fulton Square and in New Orleans East, among other locales.

It all starts this weekend with Chris Paul holding a media event on Saturday with Garth Brooks (I know, right? Random) and Copeland's to announce CP3's own dish to be served at Copeland's locations nationwide. Then Hugo, some Honeybees and a handful of Hornets players will be at Audobon Zoo on Sunday night from 5 to 9 in what I hope will include more than just Hornets players standing around and competing with the lions and tigers and bears (oh my!) for attention.
-
But the coup de grace comes on Monday afternoon with the "Swarm at Fulton Square" pep rally where all the Hornets players will be in attendance signing autographs and taking pictures from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. The event is completely free and open to the public and will include a live performance by the Topcats.

This is already shaping up to be a fun season.

Once again I agree wholeheartedly with your insight and analysis. Like you, I've already had more fun than I even thought was possible, and the season hasn't even tipped off officially yet. If you don't mind, I would also like to mention that there will be watch parties for the first two Hornets regular season games on Wednesday and Thursday. They're taking place at Fox & Hound in Metairie (Wednesday) and Ernst Cafe (Thursday). I would like to personally extend my invite to you to attend, Mr. Rios, as well as all Hornets fans. It will be almost as fun and enjoyable as watching the Hornets play live at the Hive from those $8 seats they made available this season, the cheapest tickets in the NBA.
