The Houston Rockets played against the New Orleans Pelicans on February 6, 2022, in what turned out to be an exciting game filled with ups and downs. As an avid basketball fan, I had the opportunity to witness this epic battle live at the game with my mom. In this article, I will take you through the entire experience, from the moment we received free tickets to the disappointing loss of the Rockets.

Attending a live basketball game is an exhilarating experience. The atmosphere, the energy of the crowd, and the thrill of watching the players in action create a memorable event. And that's exactly what I expected when I headed to the Toyota Center in Houston to watch the Rockets take on the Pelicans. Little did I know that this game would be filled with surprises and leave a lasting impression on both my mom and me.
How I Got Free Tickets to the Rockets Game 🎟️
As a loyal fan, I had attended a Rockets game earlier in the season. After the game, I was asked to fill out a survey about my experience. It took only a couple of minutes, and I thought nothing of it. To my amazement, as a token of appreciation, I was rewarded with four free tickets to another game – the same game I would eventually attend with my mom. I reached out to friends, but it seemed nobody wanted to see the Rockets, given their less-than-stellar performance. Nevertheless, I was thrilled to have my mom join me for this unexpected adventure.

Ultimately, we opted to stay true to our Rockets loyalty and ventured further into the arena.
