The Warriors organized a playoff event in exchange for guns in response to the California government's call. April is California's Gun Control Month, and guns are so widespread in the United States, especially in the San Francisco area, that the club took advantage of the situation to organize such an event to collect civilian guns.

This event is very tempting for fans, because as the Warriors become more and more fierce, they are now rising, and there are more and more fans, resulting in a scene where playoff tickets are hard to find, and now even scalpers have no tickets in their hands, and the tickets for the third and fourth games of the Warriors and Jazz have long been sold out, and the original front desk tickets for $500 have now been fried to $8,000, and they have no price!

So when the Warriors launched this event, it was immediately met with an enthusiastic response from fans.

Escorted by bodyguards, Chamberlain and other teammates participated in the whole event, and the group walked off the bus, and the fans waiting outside the stadium let out cheerful cheers, and the lenses of various SLRs, digital cameras, and mobile phones began to crackle.

Jackson took the lead, wearing a black trench coat and a scarf around his neck, and his unkempt black hair was neatly organized, like a ditch. Barnes and others are dressed differently, but no one is a serious suit and leather shoes, even if Stern is now mandating a 'dress code', but the stars are not clearly working against Stern, they played a sideline, no one wore a wide hip-hop suit, from this point of view, Stern won the dress code war.

Escorted by the bodyguards, Chamberlain and others entered the stadium in turn, and then the fans also began to enter, the scene was congested with police cars, full of police officers, the scene was extremely hot, Los Angeles even the state SWAT tactical team was sent, the scene was full of armed to the teeth of the military police, the scene was majestic enough to overshadow the Hollywood blockbuster.

But this is also normal, as long as the fans who come to the scene to participate in the event each carry a gun in their hands, some people have more than one gun, a rough estimate of the number of people who came to the scene is tens of thousands, the scene is full of knives and guns, if you mobilize, you can fight a small-scale conflict.

Chamberlain wasn't in a good mood, and Jackson asked, "What's the matter, man, don't you like to participate in this kind of event the most?" ”

In the past, Chamberlain was elated, Jackson and others were mourning and mourning, but this time it was the other way around, and the guns of various styles such as M14, M4A1, AK74-U, and Remington M870 on the scene made them emotional.

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

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

Chamberlain leaned over to him and whispered a little nervously: "Damn, I really don't know why the Ludao Club is doing this kind of activity, let's see, how many guns and ammunition are there here?" If a black gun suddenly comes out now, our lives will not be saved! If someone comes up with an M60, our whole team is going to be finished! ”

Hearing this, Jackson Chamberlain laughed, and for the first time he saw Chamberlain, who was majestic and not afraid of heaven and earth, showing a weak posture, he couldn't help but be surprised, and took Chamberlain's arm and told Barnes, Ellis and others next to him what he said.

Barnes and his group of birdmen were all big mouths, and soon the Warriors players all knew Chamberlain's concern and laughed together.

This result made Chamberlain angry, and he exclaimed: "You are laughing fart, I am not thinking about your life? ”

Billups smiled and waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, Z, all the entrances to the stadium are checked by military police, and no bullet can be brought in, and fans can only hold empty guns when they want to enter, so we don't have to worry about our lives." ”

If the fans could enter with loaded guns, then he wouldn't dare to come if he was given ten more daring Billups, what if he ran into a madman? What if you run into a Jazz fan? Well, the latter metaphor doesn't quite fit, because Jazz fans are crazy people, and the two are synonymous.

Chamberlain's trepidation brought the event to a close, with the San Francisco Police Department receiving 1,204 rifles, 688 shotguns, 560 submachine guns, 448 pistols and 22 machine guns, and fans exchanged nearly 2,000 tickets for the event.

The fans were very happy because they got the tickets for the game as they wished, and the San Francisco police were also happy because they had recovered so many guns, and the city security was at least a notch higher, and the Warriors were just as happy because these tickets were not given away for free, but the police department paid for them, and they just borrowed their hands to exchange tickets with the fans.

After the playoff promotion was over, the next day Chamberlain and others flew to the Utah Plateau on a special plane, they are fifth in the West, with the middle three home courts, and if the game can be played more than five games, the first two home games are for the Jazz.

On the plane, Billups warned Chamberlain, saying that he would not be surprised later, and Chamberlain secretly said that Lao Tzu was surprised, yesterday I experienced a rain of bullets, and now what is there to be afraid of?

But when the bus picking up the players drove out of the stadium, Chamberlain understood that there was something more terrifying than a rain of bullets.

As soon as the bus left the airport, it was immediately surrounded by a group of fanatical fans, who beat the body of the bus with their hands and wooden sticks, leaving the bus surrounded by water. Some hippies took out the spray that had been prepared in advance, and quickly turned the bus into a large flower face, and colorful paintings appeared on the body, and Chamberlain looked through the mirror and found that it was full of patterns of male and female genitalia.

The Salt Lake City police arrived after half an hour of fans blocking the bus, which made Chamberlain extremely indignant and yelled, "Fuck, these damn strips are deliberately late, half an hour, that's fucking enough to drive around the damn Salt Lake City twice." ”

Billups patted the table and chair fixedly and said, "Calm down, Z, be calm, didn't I tell you not to be surprised?" This kind of thing is very common, as in the 1998 and 1999 Finals, the Bulls bus was jammed for two hours! ”

Chamberlain clenched his fists and said, "A bunch of clowns, fuck, I'm going to make these fucking bastards look good on the court!" I'll teach them a lesson! ”

Ellis turned his head and smiled sheepishly, "It's nothing, Z, when the Jazz players come to our turf, they will be treated with the same courtesy as us." ”

Damn, so this is still an NBA tradition? Chamberlain was speechless, and could only sit down sullenly.

This is the crazy atmosphere of the NBA playoffs, and it is even more terrifying in the finals, Jordan has been drugged, which shows how aggressive the fans are, and Jordan is not the only one who has been recruited, Kobe Bryant has also had such an experience.

It is inevitable that the away team will have some headaches and brain fever when they are out of the house, and it is inevitable that Jordan suffered a "mysterious pizza", and Kobe Bryant was overshadowed by a sandwich.

At 4 a.m. on Game 2 of the 2002 Western Conference Finals, Lakers doctor Gary Wetti was woken up by a phone call from Kobe Bryant, who told him that he had eaten a salted meat sandwich and a piece of cheese, and that he had been suffering from stomach cramps since 1 a.m. When Victi saw Kobe, he was shocked to find out that he had food poisoning.

The hotel immediately issued a statement on the poisoning theory, saying that the food Bryant ate was the hotel's registered food. About 1,200 rooms were consuming similar food, and none of the other guests had food poisoning, so it is likely that Bryant's physical discomfort was not a food problem. The hotel also said that they are strictly managed and will never have fans get in and cause trouble

When questioning whether there was a troublemaker in Sacramento, the Sacramento Bee quoted a hotel owner as saying, "Kobe Bryant didn't have food poisoning, he drank too much, and Kobe was drunk in his shop the night before." The newspaper pointed directly at the Lakers. After this news broke, it caused an uproar in the industry, but it was later proved to be a false report

After that series, Bryant's attorney sued the Sacramento Bee for reporting the grave fact that Bryant had never been to the hotel that night. The owner of the hotel interviewed said that he had never said anything like Kobe Bryant was drunk, and the Sacramento Bee eventually lost the case and publicly apologized to Kobe in mid-February 2003.

All in all, there's no shortage of this kind of crazy stuff in the NBA, and Chamberlain is experiencing it firsthand right now.

After being trapped by fans at the airport for half an hour, the bus finally got on the road slowly, and Chamberlain and others wanted to rest, but the bus kept driving very slowly. It's not that the driver doesn't want to drive, it's not that the road is very crowded now, but because there are constantly drag racers and motorcyclists roaring around the bus, sometimes appearing in front of the bus to block the road, and sometimes sticking to the back of the car to greet the car with rotten eggs, rotten tomatoes and other things.

Listening to the roar of various high-powered engines outside, Chamberlain was extremely annoyed, but he couldn't do anything, no one was sure if there were crazy people among the fans outside, and it would be terrible to provoke them to throw Molotov cocktails at the car.

In fact, he was too worried, there were police cars following the buses along the way, but these police officers are also Jazz fans, and they turn a blind eye to this kind of fan harassment, but if anyone really dares to move seriously, they will never be merciful.

Finally arrived at the five-star hotel Caesars Palace in Salt Lake City, Chamberlain asked for his own key card and hurriedly went upstairs, the Warriors chartered half a floor, a total of twenty-five rooms belonged to them, Chamberlain's room number plate is 2218, it is the eighteenth room on the twenty-second floor.

Finding room 2218, Chamberlain finally breathed a sigh of relief, he took out the door card and swiped the door, only to hear two warning sounds of 'Didi', and the door did not open.

"Shit!" Chamberlain was very depressed, the hotel wouldn't be able to get along with them, right? Isn't this card magnetized? He tried again, but he still couldn't open the door, and the other teammates had the same experience as him, and the door card was also invalid.

Chamberlain was really angry at this moment, he slammed his fist on the door and yelled: "Damn, sue this damn hotel for me, he dares to tease customers?" ”

But to his surprise, a few seconds after he smashed the door, it was opened from the inside, and then he saw an unexpected person.
